Patient's question:
Female, 8 years old, her child said she can't see things clearly and has to look at them. At first, I didn't pay much attention, thinking it was because she had been playing computer games for too long. Please ask; how is esotropia treated in children?Doctor's answer:
Generally, there are two types of treatments: non-surgical and surgical. Surgical treatment aims to achieve the goal of correction through surgery. It is usually required for congenital esotropia and vertical strabismus, as well as non-accommodative strabismus with a large angle. However, not all types of strabismus require surgical correction. For example, accommodative esotropia can be corrected through non-surgical treatment, which involves wearing corrective glasses and undergoing corrective exercises.
