What should I do if a six year old has a little squint in his eyes?

It is recommended that you take your child to a professional eye hospital for examination** as soon as possible, so as not to delay the best time for your child**.

Strabismus in children can be corrected by covering or wearing glasses, and mild strabismus can be corrected by non-surgical methods, but if it is more severe, then it needs to be corrected by surgery.

Children with small intermittent exotropia, whose strabismus does not occur very frequently, can be conservative**: pen tip training, twice a day, 5-10 minutes each time. Multi-** disc training, disc has two kinds of visual enhancement and vistton.

After wearing corrective glasses, under the guidance of the doctor, the healthy eye is covered with an eye mask or eye patch to force the amblyopia eye to see, so that the amblyopia eye can be exercised and the vision can be increased. The unaffected eye should be covered thoroughly, and the child should not be allowed to peek with the unaffected eye. Every 1-3 months of masking, you must go to the hospital to check the vision of both eyes, and adjust the coverage plan in time according to the changes in vision.

Exotropia: When one eye is fixed on a target, the other eye is skewed outward, which is called exotropia, which is what we usually call "glancing" or "white eyes". Exotropia usually develops at the age of 2 to 4 years and can occur at any age; If exotropia occurs intermittently, that is, when you are tired, see far, or have difficulty concentrating, it is called interstitial exotropia.

If there is exotropia at any time and it does not converge (do the opposite eye), it is called constant exotropia. Correction of esotropia. For example, when a child with esotropia has moderate to high hyperopia at the same time, and wearing full-correction farsightedness glasses can completely correct esotropia, such esotropia should rely on wearing glasses**; If there is no prescription in the refractive examination, and strabismus cannot be improved by wearing glasses, then surgery is necessary to correct it.

My child is seven years old this year, and I have felt that his eyes have been squinting a little since he was four years old. Later, I took her directly to the hospital, and now she is recovering well. The child is young, it can be corrected as soon as possible, so that the effect will be better, and missing the best period may affect the child's life.

First of all, you should go to the ophthalmology department of the hospital to check what kind of strabismus the child belongs to. If strabismus cannot be corrected at all 3 months after optometry or after binocular vision function training, it should be surgically corrected. If the correction effect of wearing glasses is good, long-term planning should be done and the correction should be insisted on wearing glasses.

Do some fine handiwork according to the doctor's requirements, etc. Such as a glimpse of amblyopia, a face up, but also to block**.

If you don't often look at objects in the same direction at close range, try to keep your child from looking at objects in the same direction at close range. If your child is found to have strabismus at 4 months, you can try the following simple ways to adjust it: if there is esotropia, parents can talk to the child from a distance, or hang some brightly colored toys in a slightly farther field of vision, and let the child see more moving things; If it is an outward oblique one, you can often change the direction of the eyes between adults and children, let the child switch the direction of sleep, or let the child focus on a target (object) first, and then move the target from far to near to the tip of the nose, and repeated practice can help enhance the cohesion of the eyes.

Thank you. It's just that the child won't look at the eye chart.

In this case, the common manifestations are:

First, it affects the appearance, and normal human eyes are staring at the same target when they see things. Strabismus patients have one eye staring at the target, and the other eye is off the target, which is very unnatural and will also affect the patient's heart. Therefore, the first obvious harm is the appearance, which affects the patient's psyche.

Second, stereoscopic vision is the ability to judge objects far, near or deep and shallow, just like closing one eye up and down the stairs will feel a deep foot, shallow foot is unstable, although the strabismus patient is looking at things with both eyes at the same time, but the target of seeing is different, going up and down the stairs will appear the same feeling as a normal person closing one eye, which is easy to cause physical injury.

Therefore, if the child's eyes are squinted, then it must be paid attention to.

And how the child's eye strabismus is specific, then it depends on the type of strabismus, and the type of strabismus is different, so the method is also different.

Depending on the type of strabismus, it can generally be divided into surgical and non-surgical methods.

1) The surgical method is to adjust the strength of the external eye muscle and the position of the attachment point by surgical means, so that the eye position tends to be normal.

Congenital esotropia (cross-eyed) and upper and lower strabismus usually require surgery**, and non-accommodative and oblique strabismus usually need to be corrected by surgery.

2) Non-surgical method: Not all strabismus requires surgery**, if it is accommodative esotropia, it can be corrected as long as appropriate farsighted glasses or bifocals are worn. If there is also a refractive abnormality of medium to high intensity, it is often necessary to wear glasses to correct it, and axial correction training can be used to help restore monovision and increase the fusion ability of both eyes.

If amblyopia is also present, amblyopia training is also indispensable**.

Strabismus caused by refractive error is recommended to take medication in time to correct the refractive error. It is recommended to take two sachets of Leyan Vision Nutrients every day, and if you insist on taking it for a period of time, the refractive error will gradually be corrected, and the strabismus will gradually improve or even recover.

The key to strabismus is early detection, once parents find that their children have symptoms such as tilted head vision, close to close, squinting, photophobia, dyslexia, double vision, etc., they must go to a regular hospital for diagnosis as soon as possible to avoid the occurrence of strabismus and amblyopia.

Strabismus refers to the inability of both eyes to focus on the target at the same time, which is an extraocular muscle disease. It can be divided into two categories: common strabismus and paralytic strabismus. In the former, the ocular position is biased to the temporal side, and there is no movement disorder in the eyeball, and there is no compound view as the main clinical feature. Paralytic strabismus has limited eye movements, diplopia, and systemic symptoms such as vertigo, nausea, and unsteady gait.

How to dispense glasses for strabismus glasses.

**For strabismus, the first is for amblyopia to promote good vision development in both eyes, and the second is to correct the deviation of the eye position. Strabismus** methods include: wearing glasses, wearing an eye patch, eye axis correction training, eye muscle surgery, or a combination of the above.

Wearing an eye patch is amblyopia caused by strabismus. Orthodome correction is the use of instruments to enhance eye movements. Eye muscle surgery involves relaxing or shortening one or more of the extraocular muscles in one or both eyes.

Mild strabismus can be corrected with prism glasses.

You can go to Hefei Purui to see, This summer, Professor Yue Yiying, a well-known pediatric strabismus and amblyopia expert in the country, and Professor Yue Yiying of Tianjin Eye Hospital, will jointly consult with Xu Xinhua (former doctor of Hefei First People's Hospital) to diagnose the problem of strabismus and amblyopia in children, conduct a comprehensive examination for children, and solve parents' worries.

If your child has strabismus, you should see a doctor for an examination as soon as possible to avoid delaying the opportunity.

Surgery to correct the effect is better.

Go to the hospital for examination, if there is no amblyopia, you can have surgery**, and if you have amblyopia, you can treat amblyopia first! My daughter just had strabismus surgery, and the results are not bad, and the cost is more than 4,000 points!
