Strabismus is a common eye problem in our visual world. Not only does it affect our appearance, but it can also cause distress to our daily life and work.
Among them, secondary strabismus is a type of strabismus, which is caused by other eye diseases or structural abnormalities of the eye. So, what are the types of secondary strabismus? How can we correct this?
Types of secondary strabismus
Paralytic strabismus:Strabismus due to neuromuscular paralysis is usually manifested by symptoms such as eye movement disorders, diplopia, and vertigo.
Restrictive strabismus:Strabismus caused by adhesion and entrapment of extraocular muscles or surrounding tissues due to ocular inflammation, trauma and other reasons, which restricts eye movement.
Common strabismus:The visual axes of both eyes are not parallel, and when one eye fixes on the target, the other eye is tilted towards the nasal or temporal side, and the visual field is ghosted.
Strabismus caused by eye muscle abnormalities:Strabismus due to abnormal eye muscle length, tension, or placement of the attachment point.
Correction method
Surgery**:For some severe secondary strabismus, such as paralytic strabismus and restrictive strabismus, surgery** is the most effective method. The position and length of the extraocular muscles are surgically adjusted to restore the normal movement of the eyeball.
Wear glasses or **glasses:For some strabismus caused by refractive errors, strabismus can be corrected with appropriate glasses or glasses.
Visual Training:For some common strabismus and strabismus caused by eye muscle abnormalities, eye movement and vision can be improved with vision training.
In conclusion, secondary strabismus is an eye problem that needs attention. Understanding their types and correction methods can help us better protect our eye health and improve our quality of life. If in doubt, seek medical attention and seek help from a medical professional.
