Strabismus treatment in Cancún

Strabismus is an alteration in the alignment of the eyes, in which they do not point at the same spot at the same time, so that one may deviate inward, outward, up, or down.

How it presents: A visible deviation of the gaze, double vision, tilting of the head, or difficulty focusing may be noticed, and it is sometimes identified in childhood.

When to seek care? When an eye deviation is observed in children or adults, or changes in vision, a review without delay is a good idea.

Which specialist treats it? The ophthalmologist performs the evaluation of alignment and vision, and the optometrist can collaborate in the assessment. A timely visit allows for guidance on the most suitable follow-up.
