Squint Reduction Kucukcekmece

Strabismus Surgery Strabismus surgery is a safe and effective treatment to correct misalignment of the eyes, commonly referred to as crossed eyes. The surgery involves adjusting the muscles attached to the eye to improve alignment and coordination, ultimately enhancing visual function and cosmetic appearance. This procedure is typically performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home the same day. Procedure Steps: Preparation: Your eyes will be numbed using anesthetic eye drops, and general anesthesia or sedation is administered to ensure comfort during the procedure. Incision: The surgeon makes a small incision in the conjunctiva to access the underlying eye muscles. Muscle Adjustment: Eye muscles are carefully repositioned, tightened, or loosened to correct the alignment. Closure: The incision in the conjunctiva is closed with small absorbable sutures. Completion: A protective dressing or eye shield may be applied to the eye. Recovery: Patients typically experience mild discomfort, redness, or irritation for a few days post-surgery. Healing occurs over several weeks, with improved alignment noticeable shortly after surgery. Prescribed eye drops help manage inflammation and reduce the risk of infection. Benefits: Strabismus surgery significantly improves eye alignment, enhances depth perception, improves binocular vision, and positively impacts self-esteem and appearance. Risks: Although highly successful, potential complications include under-correction or over-correction of eye alignment, infection, scarring, or double vision. These complications are uncommon and typically manageable with appropriate follow-up care.
