Strabismus in children can be alleviated through general treatments such as changing eye usage habits and eye exercises. If the symptoms are severe, they may need to be improved through wearing glasses or prism correction, surgical treatment, and other methods.
1. Change eye usage habits: It is recommended that parents encourage children to maintain correct sitting posture and avoid bending their heads for extended periods while reading or watching TV, as this may exacerbate the condition.
2. Eye exercises: Appropriate eye exercises, such as gazing into the distance or looking at green plants, can be done to promote local blood circulation and assist in improving strabismus to a certain extent.
1. Wearing glasses or prism correction: For mild strabismus, methods such as alternating far and near vision exercises and occlusion therapy can be used under the guidance of a doctor. Additionally, wearing frame glasses or prism correction can also be employed to achieve recovery.
2. Surgical treatment: If the above methods are ineffective and the strabismus symptoms persist, it is necessary to consult a doctor in the ophthalmology department and undergo slit lamp examination, refraction status examination, and other tests to diagnose the condition accurately. Then, appropriate eye surgery, such as rectus muscle shortening or muscle vertical transposition, can be selected for treatment.
In addition, it is also important to maintain a balanced diet, adjust one's mindset, and undergo regular check-ups. If any significant discomfort occurs during this period, medical attention should be sought promptly to avoid delaying treatment.
