How to treat squint

Strabismus is treated primarily for amblyopia to develop good vision in both eyes, and secondarily to correct the deviated eye position. Treatment for strabismus includes wearing glasses, covering with eyeshade, and orthoptic training. Eyeshade is the primary treatment for strabismus, and surgery is a secondary option. Eyeglass surgery involves relaxing or shortening one or more of the extraocular muscles in one or both eyes. The younger the age of the treatment, the better the treatment effect. The operation is not only to correct the eye position and improve the appearance, but also to establish the visual function of both eyes. The best time for surgery is before 6 to 7 years old.
