Strabismus Care

Strabismus is a condition in which the eyes are crossed, turned outward, or vertically misaligned. A child with strabismus may have trouble reading due to impaired vision, experience difficulties in social situations because of seemingly indirect eye contact, and be made fun of by peers because of the stigma associated with crossed eyes and other forms of strabismus. At Eye Associates of Wilmington, our physicians utilize the latest strabismus treatments to help both children and adults achieve improved vision and a better cosmetic appearance.

Adult Strabismus

Some of the adult patients that come to Eye Associates of Wilmington have problems with misaligned eyes or double vision. Sometimes their condition is the result of an injury or an eye disease such as nerve palsy. In other cases, these patients may have had strabismus all their lives and even been told that nothing could be done to help. This is a misconception. Most adult strabismus patients can be treated. There are many important reasons to consider treatment, including eliminating double vision, expanding the field of vision, and making certain social interactions easier. David A. Johnson, M.D., Ph.D. has extensive experience in dealing with adult ocular alignment and motility problems, using both surgical and non-surgical approaches. A consultation with Dr. Johnson should address your concerns and answer your questions about treatment options for adult strabismus.
