Occasional esotropia in one-year-old babies may be caused by non-disease factors such as excessive eye use and congenital factors, or by disease factors such as refractive errors, amblyopia, and congenital nystagmus. It is recommended that parents promptly take their babies to the hospital for diagnosis and undergo targeted treatment under the guidance of a doctor.
1. Excessive Eye Use: If the baby spends a long time looking at electronic devices such as mobile phones and televisions, it may lead to fatigue of the eye muscles and occasional esotropia. It is recommended that parents help the baby develop good eye habits and avoid prolonged use of electronic devices.
2. Congenital Factors: If the baby was born with congenital conditions such as epicanthic folds or a depressed nasal bridge, it may block the light in the corner of the eye, resulting in occasional esotropia. Generally, no special treatment is required, and it can gradually improve with age.
1. Refractive Errors: If the baby has conditions such as myopia, hyperopia, or astigmatism, it may lead to abnormal eye adjustment function and occasional esotropia. It is recommended that parents take their baby to the hospital for vision testing and wear appropriate glasses to correct vision.
2. Amblyopia: If the baby has amblyopia and does not take proper eye care measures in daily life, it may lead to aggravation of the condition and occasional esotropia. It is recommended that parents take their baby to the hospital for vision testing and wear glasses as prescribed to correct vision.
3. Congenital Nystagmus: If the baby suffers from congenital nystagmus, symptoms such as eye tremor and eye movement disorders may occur during the onset, accompanied by frequent blinking. Treatment can include medication such as amitriptyline hydrochloride under the guidance of a doctor, or corrective surgery with a prism lens.
In addition, it may also be related to Tourette syndrome in children. It is recommended that parents pay close attention to their baby's physical health and take them to the hospital for regular check-ups.
