Squint is a misalignment of eyes which can relate to vision problems and sometimes to Neurological issues. Therefore, a detailed examination is necessary for the cause of the squint. Binocular vision is a unique property of the human eyes. Seeing one object with both eyes at the same time and forming one image is a unique characteristic of the human eye which requires meticulous functioning of various parts of the eye. When both eyes visual axis are aligned, the eyes are said to be functioning together. On the other hand, a misalignment in the visual axis of both eyes condition is termed a squint. In general, crossing or deviation of the eye is termed a squint. This misalignment may be due to various causes that may be in the eye muscles, the structure of the eye, defect in vision, defect in the brain and sometimes due to nerve imbalance.

Different kinds of squints and their causes

Various types based on the cause of squint are also present.

In neurological squint, a defect in nerve transmission can lead to squint.

In cases of restrictive squint, contracture in the surrounding structures of the eye can lead to squint.

In cases of sensory squint, defects in vision cause the eye to deviate because of non-usage.

Some types of squint may be associated with decreased vision, which requires vision restoration. Squint due to a decrease in vision such as cataracts, retina problem needs to be treated first by treating the primary cause. This includes cataract surgery and treatment of retinal diseases. After the surgery also, vision restoration is unpredictable. We may need surgery for cosmetic purposes in such cases.

Surgical treatment for squint

Squinting is not always related with eyesight impairment. In such circumstances, the patient's vision may be fine, and the squint may be purely cosmetic. The nature and severity of the squint determine the extent of surgery required.Squint surgery is extremely careful, and an assessment is required prior to operation. Squint surgery typically alters the location of the eye muscles, depending on the type of squint and muscular movement. As a result, squint surgery may be performed in a variety of circumstances. Squint surgery may also cause difficulties. Furthermore, some squints make it harder to predict results.
