What should a man do about crossed eyes?
Disease description:
I took my child for an examination and found out he has strabismus. He always squints when watching TV, and I've noticed that his right eye appears smaller than his left. What should be done if a boy has strabismus?

Hello, strabismus mainly refers to the inability of both eyes to simultaneously focus on a target. It is usually congenital but can also be caused by trauma or systemic diseases. Some patients with strabismus may have high hyperopia. Clinically, treatment primarily includes non-surgical and surgical approaches. Non-surgical treatments mainly involve wearing glasses, using an eye patch, and orthoptic training.
