Today is National Strabismus Day! Have you ever seen someone whose eyes don't seem to focus properly? They may have a "crossed eye" or strabismus. This eye muscle problem affects ~5% of children and needs to be treated with glasses, vision therapy, and/or surgery. Your Optometrist will check for an eye muscle problem at every eye exam, so routine exams are important to monitor for early warning signs!
