Squint

Accurate Diagnosis

Comprehensive Eye Examinations: Our dedicated team conducts thorough eye examinations, including assessments of ocular alignment, binocular vision, and eye muscle function, to accurately diagnose squint (strabismus) and determine its type and severity.
Orthoptic Assessment: We employ specialized orthoptic tests and techniques to evaluate eye movements, coordination, and alignment, enabling precise diagnosis and personalized treatment planning for squint.

Customized Treatment Plans

Orthoptic Exercises: Depending on the type and severity of squint, we prescribe customized orthoptic exercises to strengthen eye muscles, improve coordination, and promote binocular vision. These exercises are tailored to each patient’s individual needs and may include activities to enhance eye tracking, convergence, and depth perception.
Prism Lenses: For individuals with persistent squint or binocular vision anomalies, we may prescribe prism lenses to help align the eyes and alleviate symptoms of double vision (diplopia). These specialized lenses can provide temporary or permanent correction, depending on the underlying cause of squint.
Surgical Intervention: In cases where non-surgical approaches are insufficient to correct squint, we offer referrals for surgical consultation with experienced ophthalmologists specializing in strabismus surgery. Surgical intervention aims to realign the eyes and restore binocular vision, improving cosmetic appearance and visual function.

Ongoing Monitoring and Management

Regular Follow-up Visits: We emphasize the importance of regular follow-up visits to monitor the progress of squint treatment, assess ocular alignment, and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. Our team provides ongoing support and guidance to ensure optimal visual outcomes and patient satisfaction.
Visual Rehabilitation: We offer comprehensive visual rehabilitation programs to help patients adapt to changes in ocular alignment and optimize visual function following squint treatment. This may include vision therapy, adaptive strategies, and counseling to address any psychosocial impact of squint on daily activities and self-esteem.
Educational Support: We educate patients and their families about the importance of adherence to treatment recommendations, proper visual hygiene practices, and strategies to promote long-term eye health and well-being. By empowering individuals with knowledge and support, we strive to enhance their quality of life and minimize the impact of squint on overall visual function and self-confidence.
