Patient's question:
Female, 27 years old, recently, her vision has slightly improved, and she can't see things clearly. When she went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said it was mild strabismus. I want to know, how is adult strabismus treated and checked? What are the treatment methods for mild amblyopia?Doctor's answer:
Strabismus is commonly seen in eyes with high hyperopia, and it can also be caused by conditions like cataracts or ptosis that cover the vision. The clinical manifestation of strabismus is blurred vision both at far and near distances. The younger the age of treatment, the better the outcome. Generally, there is no effective treatment if the age is over 17 or 18, and if you are already 30 years old, recovery is no longer possible. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients need to seek systematic and standardized examinations in reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible based on their specific conditions to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain regular routines, take precautions against cold, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water daily.
