Patient's question:
Female, 6 years old, my child has recently experienced a slight improvement in vision and has difficulty seeing things clearly. When checked at the hospital, the doctor said it is mild strabismus. I would like to know if surgical treatment is possible for amblyopia.Doctor's answer:
Strabismus in children is a common disease that greatly affects the daily diet and lifestyle of affected children. Early detection and timely treatment are generally required. Treatment does not necessarily involve surgery. The treatment methods are usually chosen based on the individual condition of the patient. The treatment principles are as follows:1. Correct refractive errors.
2. For central fixation: occlusion therapy, visual stimulation therapy, and therapy to significantly improve vision.
3. For peripheral central fixation: afterimage therapy, red filter or red flash therapy, Haidinger brushes, and recovery of macular foveal fixation.
4. Homonymous hemianopia training.
Seek medical treatment promptly and do not delay the best time for treatment.
