Patient's question:
A boy is 8 years old. After getting sick, taking medicine had little effect, and he still feels uncomfortable. Please ask: Is it necessary to correct pediatric strabismus through surgical treatment?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, it is recommended to have strabismus surgery as early as possible, because delaying surgery can lead to abnormal retinal correspondence. If the child also has amblyopia, it is even more important to have surgery early, otherwise it will affect the recovery of the child's amblyopia. For this consultation, the doctor updated the summary and recommendation: have surgery as soon as possible to avoid affecting the child's visual development. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients need to go to a formal Grade III-A hospital for systematic and standardized examination as soon as possible according to their own condition, so that they can be treated according to the symptoms and recover quickly.
