What is concomitant strabismus?

Congenital strabismus refers to an eye disease in which the visual axes of both eyes are not parallel and cannot gaze at the same object, resulting in the deviation of the position of either eye when either eye is in the right position.

Congenital strabismus occurs in adolescents and is usually caused by abnormal development of extraocular muscles and eye fusion disorders. The visual axes of both eyes are not parallel to each other and cannot gaze at the same object. When either eye is in the right position, the position of the other eye is deviated, which can cause diplopia and changes in the visual field of both eyes.

Patients should undergo visual function training and wear glasses in time after the disease occurs, or choose surgical treatment to correct concomitant strabismus, which can usually improve vision.
