Is it normal for babies to cross their eyes a little bit?

Cross-eye is clinically called esotropia. Whether an infant has a little esotropia is normal is related to age. It needs to be analyzed in combination with the actual situation.

Within three months after birth, due to insufficient muscle strength around the eyes and relatively poor eye coordination, esotropia may occur. If it is not accompanied by other discomfort symptoms, it is generally normal. After six months, the infant's eye muscle strength will generally improve, and the coordination ability will gradually improve. If esotropia still exists at this time, it is suggested that it is abnormal, which may be caused by abnormal development of extraocular muscles, ametropia and other reasons. It is recommended to take the infant to the hospital for examination in time to clarify the specific reasons.
