eye deviation

In strabismus or abnormality in the gaze axis of the eyes, the direction of the gaze is different. This disease is usually prevalent in children and about 4% of children suffer from it, but sometimes it is seen in adults as well. In a natural vision where two eyes look at the same point, both eyes send a specific image to the brain and a 3D vision is perceived by the brain. This is done by the muscles that cover the eyeball from several directions. These muscles work in a strange way in a completely symmetrical and coordinated way in the eyes. In strabismus, one or more muscles are disturbed, which leads to the deviation of one eye, and as a result, two images are sent to the brain, and the brain tries to select one of the two images and ignore the other, which is usually the created image. Ignores deviation by the eye. This causes the eye sight to be gradually reduced and the eye becomes lazy or amblyopia. Therefore, it is necessary to treat the deviation of the eye as soon as possible so that it does not cause a permanent lesion in vision.
In simple and basic cases, the deviation can be removed by closing one eye and giving some eye exercises, but in advanced cases, surgery is the best way to treat eye deviation. This operation is very sensitive and requires skill.
