Squint Correction Services

Squint Correction Services

Our squint correction services are dedicated to improving eye alignment and enhancing visual function for both children and adults. Squint, also known as strabismus, occurs when the eyes are not properly aligned and point in different directions. This condition can affect vision, depth perception, and overall eye coordination.

Symtoms

Misaligned Eyes

One or both eyes may turn inwards, outwards, upwards, or downwards. The misalignment can be constant or intermittent.

Double Vision

Seeing two images of a single object (diplopia) can occur if the brain receives different visual signals from each eye.

Reduced Depth Perception

Difficulty judging distances or a lack of three-dimensional vision can be a result of improper eye alignment.

Eyestrain and Fatigue

Frequent squinting, closing one eye, or experiencing headaches and discomfort after prolonged visual tasks can indicate strabismus.

Difficulty with Coordination

Strabismus can affect hand-eye coordination, making activities like catching a ball or pouring liquids more challenging.

Head Tilting or Turning

To compensate for the misaligned vision, a person may tilt or turn their head to use one eye more effectively, reducing double vision.

Vision Loss in One Eye (Amblyopia)

If left untreated, strabismus can lead to amblyopia, or "lazy eye," where the brain favors one eye over the other, resulting in reduced vision in the affected eye.

Blurred Vision

Difficulty focusing and maintaining clear vision can be a symptom, especially in tasks requiring precise visual attention.

Our Squint Correction Services Include

Comprehensive Eye Examination

Our thorough eye exams assess the degree and type of squint, evaluating both the structure and function of the eyes. We use advanced diagnostic tools to determine the underlying cause of the misalignment.

Non-Surgical Treatments

Depending on the type and severity of the squint, we may recommend non-surgical treatments such as corrective glasses, prisms, or vision therapy exercises. These methods can help improve eye coordination and alignment.

Surgical Correction

For more pronounced cases, we offer surgical intervention to correct the eye muscles and realign the eyes. Our experienced surgeons use precise techniques to adjust the muscles responsible for eye movement, ensuring optimal alignment and function.

Pediatric Care

Early detection and treatment are crucial for children with squint. Our pediatric ophthalmologists specialize in treating young patients, providing gentle and effective care to correct eye alignment and support healthy visual development.

Post-Treatment Follow-Up

After treatment, we provide ongoing monitoring and follow-up care to ensure the success of the correction and to address any residual issues. Regular check-ups help maintain proper eye alignment and prevent recurrence.
