A squint evaluation is a comprehensive eye assessment to diagnose and manage misalignment of the eyes, commonly known as strabismus. Squint can affect vision clarity, depth perception, and appearance, and if untreated, it may lead to long-term vision problems. Early detection and proper management are essential for both children and adults.
Common signs include one eye turning inward, outward, upward, or downward, frequent squinting, double vision, tilting the head to see clearly, and difficulty judging distance. In children, delayed visual development or poor eye coordination may also indicate the need for evaluation.
Squint can be classified based on the direction of eye misalignment: esotropia (inward turning), exotropia (outward turning), hypertropia (upward turning), or hypotropia (downward turning). It can also be constant or intermittent. Identifying the type and severity helps determine the most effective treatment.
The evaluation involves a thorough eye examination, vision testing, and assessment of eye alignment and coordination. Based on findings, treatment may include corrective glasses, eye exercises, or surgery in more severe cases. The goal is to improve eye alignment, vision, and overall visual function.
