Strabismus is when eyes don’t line up or when one or both eyes wander. Whether your child was born with strabismus or it happened later, the condition usually can be fixed when it’s found and treated early. At Nemours Children's, that’s what we do. Only a trained pediatric ophthalmologist (children's eye doctor) can diagnose and treat strabismus in kids. Our experts can better your child’s chances of having straight eyes and good vision as they grow.
At Nemours, our eye doctors are board certified and fellowship trained at nationally recognized institutions to provide the highest level of surgical and medical treatments for common and complex eye problems. Many of our physicians are recognized as “Best Doctors in America®” and “Top Doctors” in the area. We perform state-of-the-art operations, when appropriate, to treat and repair kids’ eyes.
We’re also active in research to find new and better ways to treat children’s eye problems. And, for kids with more than one health need, our team approach can save you time, allowing you to see several doctors on the same day, in the same place.
