Introduction

What is strabismus

Strabismus, also known as crossed eyes, is a common eye condition among children of all ages. It is when the eyes are not lined up properly and they point in different directions, also considered misaligned. One eye may look straight ahead while the other eye will turn in, out, up, or down. It is not necessary for the misalignment to occur in one eye more than the other and can shift between the eyes.
