Specialists in Squint and Lazy Eye Syndrome

A Squint or 'Strabismus' develops when the two muscles (that do not work in a balanced way and the eyes do not move together correctly. This loss of coordination between the muscles of the two eyes leads to misalignment, blindly eyes move in parallel directions. But, in case of squint, also, known as crossed eyes, one eye points in the direction and the person is looking and the other eye turns inwards, outwards, upwards or downwards. This condition is more common in children than in adults.

The squinting eye is used less often and the brain tends to neglect the image from that eye. In children, this may lead to Amblyopia (Lazy Eye). Moreover, constant squint reduces the development of binocularity and depth perception which are required for various activities like driving, sports etc.

Squint does not correct on its own. Treatment of squint should begin as early as possible. The eye specialist is the best judge and will advise you the correct treatment. The earlier the treatment begins, greater are the chances of improvement.

Squint treatment for children include muscle exercises, use of prisms in spectacles and surgery to correct squint. Amblyopia therapy may also be required in cases with lazy eye.
