Why do children with strabismus need a second surgery?

Patient's question:

A girl is 6 years old this year. She has been running back and forth to the hospital many times, but the effect is always not obvious, and she has been sick all the time. Please ask: Why does a child with strabismus need a second surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is due to incomplete self-healing from the first correction, or it could be caused by the onset of strabismus. It is best to consult a doctor at the hospital. It is recommended not to give up surgical treatment to avoid affecting the child's future vision. Pay attention to protecting the eyes and avoid prolonged use. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to go to a regular top-tier hospital for systematic and standardized examinations based on their own condition to achieve targeted treatment and recover quickly.
