Overview

"A squint refers to a condition in which the eyes do not align in the right way. One eye may turns upwards, upwards, inwards, downwards, or outwards, while the other eyes focuses at a single place. in most cases, this happens due to the muscles that control eye movement and the eyelid, the extraocular muscles, are not functioning rightly at the same time. That is why both eyes are unable to look at the same spot simultaneously. Squint can be of various types such as:
• Exotropia - when the eye turns outwards
• Esotropia - when the eye turns inwards
• Hypertropia - when the eye turns upwards
• Hypotropia - when the eye turns downwards

Causes

"Squint can be:
• Because of a lesion on a cranial nerve
• Congenital (a person is born with it)
• Hereditary
• Due to an illness or long-sightedness
• Myopia, or short-sightedness
• Hypermetropia, or long-sightedness

Symptoms

The symptoms of squint are pretty obvious. One of the eyes does not look straight. A squint of minor nature is not much visible. However, if infants go cross-eyed it does not mean they have this condition. It only indicates that they are tired in most cases. At times a squint that was treated successfully in childhood returns later in life which may cause double vision.

Treatment

"Getting treated timely helps reduces the risk of complications, such as lazy eye or amblyopia. If it is treated in childhood it can prove to provide best outcome. Treatment options include:
• Eye drops
• Glasses
• Eye patch
• Botulinum toxin injection, or botox
• Eye exercises
• Surgery
