Squint Can Affect Both Adults Children

How squint affects children?
  • Squint in children usually means that both eyes
    cant align, or turn in or out. Children with
    strabismus may also experience either constant or
    intermittent eye turn. Additionally, children
    also experience a lazy eye, more properly known
    as amblyopia. This term means that the vision in
    one eye is significantly poorer than the other.

How is squint treated?
  • Your ophthalmologist in Adelaide may recommend
    glasses for a child with a squint. Occlusion
    therapy, which requires an eye patch to be worn,
    may be required in addition to glasses. Eye
    surgery could be required in order to correct eye
    alignment.

  • Squint means eyes point in different directions,
    turn in or out, or are uncoordinated.
  • Adults can suffer from squint (known as
    strabismus) for a number of reasons. It can be
    the return of a condition that was corrected in
    childhood.
  • It can also occur as a result of stroke or
    injury, diabetes, or a tumor.
  • Thyroid dysfunction can also cause squint in
    adults. Age can also be a cause, as the muscles
    controlling the eyes movements deteriorate.

What treatment is available?
  • Squint can impact both your appearance and the
    quality of your vision. The appearance of the
    eyes can make some people feel uncomfortable or
    self-conscious. In addition, it can lead to
    double vision and other sight problems.
  • There are a number of possible solutions that
    your ophthalmologist in Adelaide may suggest.
    These include prescribing glasses with prisms,
    eye muscle exercises or eye surgery.
