Many babies have the problem of strabismus, which is mostly due to the fact that they look too close from a young age, causing their eyeballs to always maintain a high degree of adjustment. Along with too much inward rotation of the eyeballs, strabismus is formed. Parents should promptly correct their child's strabismus if they notice it. So, what should I do if a 2-year-old baby has strabismus?
A 2-year-old baby has strabismus, which can be corrected by wearing glasses. After the child wears corrective glasses, they can slowly turn their strabismus around. If wearing glasses does not work, it can also be corrected through surgery.
After surgery, babies often experience eye soreness and difficulty in eye movement, as well as a feeling of foreign bodies in the eyes. Sometimes, varying degrees of eye pain can make it difficult for children to fall asleep. These are common postoperative reactions, and the degree and duration of these discomforts may vary from person to person. Usually, they can be relieved within 2-5 days, so parents do not need to worry too much. Within 2 days after the child's surgery, parents can use ice packs to apply cold compress to the child, which can alleviate pain and bleeding. In addition, parents should also take their children for regular check ups.
If parents do not wish to perform surgery on their children, they can also correct strabismus through covering training methods. It is to use an eye mask to cover the eyes with strabismus, which can suppress the movement of the strabismus eyes. As long as you persist in using it, it can also correct strabismus.
