Strabismus Orthoptics

Strabismus orthoptics is a specialized area within orthoptics that focuses on assessing and treating strabismus, a condition where the eyes do not properly align with each other. This misalignment can affect vision and depth perception. Orthoptists use exercises, vision therapy, and other techniques to help improve eye coordination and muscle control. The goal is to enhance visual function and, in some cases, align the eyes more effectively, ultimately helping individuals, especially children, see better and reduce discomfort or cosmetic concerns related to eye misalignment.
