What is Strabismus (Deviation of eyes)?

Misalignment of eyes is called strabismus and can lead to disruption of the visual development process. Not all strabismus occurs at birth. It can be acquired throughout a person’s life for a variety of reasons. A problem affecting any of the six extra ocular muscles in either eye will cause misalignment and hence can cause some disruption in binocular vision. Depending on the cause for the disruption and the severity of the problem, visual symptoms will vary.
