Strabismus - Lazy Eye Cross Eyed Double Vision




What causes Strabismus?
Strabismus can be caused by:
• Refractive errors (short-sightedness, long-sightedness, or astigmatism)
• Eye muscle imbalance or paralysis.

Strabismus can also be hereditary.
All children should have their vision assessed at an early age particularly if a family history of strabismus is present, or if parents notice signs of strabismus. An obvious sign is that an eye is not straight or does not appear to be looking in the same direction as the other. Parents may notice that their child may squint one eye in bright sunlight, or that they are not interested in looking at objects that have fine detail (such as small or detailed toys or pictures in a book). A child may also show signs of compromised depth perception (due to the presence of strabismus) by bumping into objects or missing an object when reaching for it. Occasionally a child may complain of double vision and should be seen promptly by an ophthalmologist, however double vision may be unlikely if the strabismus has been present since birth.

Dr Martin and his orthoptist will determine the cause of the strabismus and treatment will be initiated accordingly.
