Were you told by your pediatrician or friend that your baby will outgrow their crossed eyes? Pediatric ophthalmologist, Dr. Rupa Wong, explains why this is more complicated than a yes/no answer and how to tell if your child needs to see an eye doctor. There is a lot of confusion over what is normal in a baby's visual development and what is not. When does eye crossing improve? When is esotropia worrisome? When should you be concerned if your baby or toddler is still crossing their eyes?
Covered in this video:
What is strabismus?
What is congenital esotropia?
What is delayed visual maturation?
When to take your child to the ophthalmologist for evaluation?
When is surgery necessary for eye crossing?
