A squint, also known as a strabismus, is a deformity in which the eyes of a person do not face in the same direction. Either one of the eyes, or at times both the eyes face inward, outward, downward, or upwards. This deformity can be hereditary, acquired during birth, or sometimes beveloped later in life. This condition can occur due to nearsightedness, longsightedness, or astigmatism. Cerebral palsy and Down’s syndrome in children, can also be the causes of this disorder.
If not treated on time, this condition can cause further eye damage like permanent lazy eye, double vision, or blurry vision.
The Squint Clinic conducts diagnosis for both children and adults with squint conditions. The doctors make use of a clinical equipment called the Synoptophore, to determine the angle of the squint, and the imbalance in the eye muscles. Using the results of this test, they are able to determine the further treatment of the patient. The doctors also carry out the Hess’ and Diplopia Charting assessments to determine whether the patient’s eye condition has improved or deteriorated over time. The doctors might prescribe non-surgical treatments like glasses or eye exercises if the condition is mild. Surgical treatments are used when other treatments don’t offer effective results. This includes surgery to move the muscles that control the eye movement, or eye injections that weaken the muscles and help them line up correctly.
The squint clinic at Sarakshi Netralaya is led by Squint Specialist, Dr. Rinkle Phusate. With the help of advanced diagnostic equipment, and experienced doctors to provide effective treatments, Sarakshi’s Squint Clinic is one of the best in Nagpur.

What are the symptoms of squint eye problem?

Squint, or strabismus, can be caused by various factors, including muscle imbalances that control eye movement, genetic predisposition, neurological conditions, or issues with the eye’s focusing system. In some cases, it can be associated with other vision problems such as refractive errors.

While some mild cases of squint may improve with exercises or vision therapy, most significant squint issues cannot be corrected naturally.

In certain cases, squint can be managed without surgery through options like glasses, vision therapy, or prism lenses. However, surgical intervention is often the most effective solution for permanent correction, especially in moderate to severe cases.

Sarakshi Netralaya is recognized as one of the best hospitals for squint eye treatment in Nagpur. The hospital offers comprehensive eye care with advanced diagnostic tools and treatment options tailored to individual needs.

There is no strict age limit for squint correction.
