Strabismus

What is squinting? Squinting means that the eyes are not looking in the same direction . As a result, the brain is unable to fuse the images properly. For this reason, double images are created.

This so-called “silver gaze” is not just a blemish, but a visual impairment. Are you or your child affected by squinting? Then you should definitely see an ophthalmologist.

In this article you will find interesting information about the forms, causes and treatment of strabismus.

What is squint (strabismus)? – Definition

A persistent or recurring deformity of one or both eyes is called squinting (strabismus) in medicine. When squinting, the gaze falls in different directions, forming the characteristic eye position.

However, the squint does not necessarily have to be visible, but can hardly be noticed. Depending on the direction in which the eye deviates, four forms can be distinguished, regardless of whether the eye is right or left.

Inward or inward squint (strabismus convergens or esotropia)
Outward or outward squint (strabismus divergens or exotropia)
Height squinting (strabismus verticalis or hypertropia or hypotropia, as well as dissociated vertical divergence or DVD)
Rolling squints (strabismus rotatorius or cyclotropy – excyclotropy or incyclotropy)
