The most direct way to judge whether your baby is strabismus is to observe your baby's eyes. You can also see a doctor for a professional examination.

How to determine if your baby is squinting

When your baby looks forward, if both eyes cannot look at the same target at the same time, or if one eye deviates from the target, then it may be strabismus. In addition, if your baby often tilts his head to see things, or likes to close one eye in the sun, it may also be strabismus.

However, this is only a preliminary judgment. To confirm whether your baby is strabismus, you need to take your baby to a professional eye hospital for a detailed examination. The doctor will use professional equipment and methods, such as masking test, corneal reflection method, etc., to accurately determine whether your baby has strabismus, and the type and degree of strabismus. If you are diagnosed with strabismus, the doctor will formulate a corresponding treatment plan according to your baby's specific conditions.
