Strabismus is not only a cosmetic misalignment of the eyes. It may affect the development of binocular vision, making timely treatment especially important in children. In adults, causes and treatment goals may be different. At Ahvar Clinic, management is selected individually after the type of strabismus has been determined.

What it addresses / benefits

  • identification of the type of strabismus
  • assessment of vision in both eyes
  • selection of optical correction
  • treatment of amblyopia when indicated
  • surgical correction of eye alignment.

Preparation

A complete ophthalmic examination and refraction assessment are required. In children, visual function in each eye must be evaluated carefully.

How the procedure is performed

Depending on the cause, treatment may include glasses, other conservative methods, or surgery on the extraocular muscles.

Result / recovery

Outcomes depend on the type of strabismus, patient age, and visual function. Some patients require long-term staged treatment.
