Strabismus is a common eye condition in children. The treatment approach depends on the type of strabismus, which can be classified into esotropia, exotropia, vertical strabismus, and special types. In cases of esotropia, refractive errors such as high hyperopia or high astigmatism are often present, so some patients can correct their strabismus by wearing glasses. Exotropia or vertical strabismus generally requires surgical correction. Therefore, if a child has strabismus, it is essential to visit the hospital early for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate treatment.
