Answer:
A visual problem!
Explanation:
Strabismus is a visual problem in which the eyes are not aligned properly and point in different directions. One eye may look straight ahead, while the other eye turns inward, outward, upward, or downward. The eye turn may be consistent, or it may come and go.

Stabismus :
It is a disorder involving misalignment of the eyes caused by a congenital defect or acquired weakness of an eye muscle. One eye may appear deviated inward (esotropia) or outward (exotropia). When the visual axes are not in alignment, the brain perceives 2 images (diplopia) and suppresses the weaker image to compensate. If left untreated by age 4-6, permanent reduction or loss of visual acuity in the affected eye (amblyopia) can occur. Initial treatments vary depending on the underlying cause. One common treatment is to strengthen the muscles of the weaker eye by wearing a patch over the stronger eye or using special corrective lenses. If nonsurgical methods are unsuccessful, surgical intervention to shorten or reposition an eye muscle for more effective movement may be required.
