First of all

What is strabismus?

Strabismus is often referred to as crossed eyes, but it can present in several different ways. The American Optometric Association defines strabismus as a “condition in which both eyes do not look at the same place at the same time.” It can present as one eye drifting inward (esotropia), outward (exotropia), upward (hypertropia), or downward (hypotropia). This misalignment is often due to incongruities, such as the eye’s inability to focus properly on a point off in the distance.

Strabismus most often occurs in babies and toddlers due to heredity or problems during physical development. Most cases in children are caused by poor communication between the brain, muscles, and nerves of the eye. However, it can also occur in adults who have suffered a stroke, head trauma, or diabetes. The condition can lead to double vision, a lack of depth perception, and even loss of eyesight if left untreated

How is strabismus treated?

Treatments range from prescription eyewear to surgery to align the eyes. However, many vision therapy programs now incorporate exercises for the eyes as well. These can help to improve coordination.

Exercises should not be considered a substitute for medical treatment. “Because the causes and manifestations of strabismus vary widely, patient-driven eye exercises alone should not be considered as an exclusive treatment,” says Dr. Jeffrey Anshel, founding president of the nonprofit Ocular Nutrition Society. “An orthoptist or optometrist can properly assess the situation and prescribe a regimen designed to address specific symptoms.”

Bottom line: Be sure to get a thorough eye examination before you start a vision treatment plan.
