Conditions

Strabismus in children. Strabismus is an ocular condition in which the eyes are misaligned and do not point in the same direction. This misalignment can lead to reduced binocular vision, poor depth perception, and difficulty maintaining stable fixation. The condition affects visual development during childhood and may impact academic performance, daily activities, and social functioning if left untreated. The study focuses on pediatric patients with strabismus who require non invasive visual the

Interventions

Children in the control group receive standard occlusion therapy, which involves patching the dominant eye for prescribed hours each day. The purpose is to stimulate use of the weaker eye and promote
