Dayton Children’s is proud to collaborate with many health care organizations that provide care to our patients. While we do not currently employ any ophthalmologists we do partner with many community providers to help manage the health of your child's vision. For more information please ask your community doctor if they have an affiliation with or perform surgery at Dayton Children’s.
In strabismus, the brain may get a blurry image from the eye that is not lined up correctly. To avoid double vision, the brain ignores the image from that eye. If strabismus is not corrected, this can lead to "lazy eye" (amblyopia) with low vision. Strabismus and amblyopia are closely related and often occur together.
