Strabismus Surgery

What is strabismus surgery?

Strabismus surgery is a procedure used to correct eye misalignment when the eyes do not point in the same direction. The surgery adjusts the position or tension of specific eye muscles to improve alignment and, in some cases, visual function.

When is strabismus surgery recommended?

Surgery may be recommended when strabismus persists despite other treatments, when there is significant eye deviation, double vision, or problems related to eye alignment. In children, treatment may also be part of managing amblyopia or lazy eye, depending on the individual case.

What specialist performs strabismus surgery?

The procedure is performed by an ophthalmologist specializing in strabismus. The specialist evaluates eye alignment, eye movements, and binocular vision to determine the most appropriate treatment.
