Patient's question:
My right eye is nearsighted, and I don't usually wear glasses. Recently, one of my eyes is normal, while the other is considered strabismus by others. It turns out to be exotropia. What should I do? How can I treat one eye with exotropia?Doctor's answer:
Hello! According to the symptoms you mentioned, the eye deviation is likely caused by an imbalance in the strength of several eye muscles that control eye movement. Don't be too concerned. If this condition has been present since childhood, it may be due to abnormal development of the eye muscles. In adults, this symptom could be caused by eye muscle paralysis due to certain reasons, such as ocular motor nerve paralysis caused by insufficient blood supply. You can take your child to the hospital for a check-up.
