Squint & Pediatric Ophthalmology

Pediatric Ophthalmology – Caring for Young Eyes

Children’s vision plays a vital role in their growth, learning, and overall development. At our pediatric ophthalmology clinic, we specialize in the early detection and treatment of childhood eye conditions such as strabismus (squint), amblyopia (lazy eye), and refractive errors.

Our expert team uses the latest diagnostic technology and a gentle, child-friendly approach to provide accurate assessments and personalized care — ensuring your child’s vision is protected every step of the way.

Types of Squint Disorders

At Saatvik Eye Hospital, we recognize several types of strabismus, including:

Esotropia (Crossed Eyes)

The eyes turn inward toward the nose.

Exotropia (Divergent or Wall-Eyes)

The eyes turn outward, away from the nose.

Hypotropia

One eye is positioned lower than the other.

Hypertropia

One eye is positioned higher than the other.

Alternating Strabismus

The squint alternates between the eyes, often affecting both.

Consecutive Squint

Occurs after the correction of another eye condition, where the alignment changes following treatment.

Pediatric Ophthalmology

Children are especially vulnerable to vision problems that can impact their overall development. Our pediatric ophthalmology services are designed to address a range of conditions in young patients, including strabismus, amblyopia, and other refractive errors. Our specialists use child-friendly approaches and the latest diagnostic tools to ensure accurate assessment and effective treatment.

Treatments

At Saatvik Eye Hospital, we offer a comprehensive range of treatments tailored for both squint disorders and pediatric eye conditions:

Non-Surgical Approaches: These may include prescription glasses, patching therapy, and vision therapy to strengthen eye coordination and improve visual acuity.

Surgical Interventions: For cases where non-surgical measures are insufficient, strabismus surgery can realign the eyes. Our experienced pediatric ophthalmologists use precision techniques to adjust the eye muscles, ensuring improved alignment and function.
