Strabismus Surgery

Domanda

My daughter was diagnosed with strabismus. Can this cause her migraines? We have been sent to a pediatric eye doctor for a second opinion on what to do. This condition has just been apparent the last few months. Our daughter is 31 years old. Do they usually do operations at that age?

Risposta dei nostri esperti

Strabismus does not cause migraines. Temporary transient strabismus can be a rare result of migraines. Strabismus surgery can be done at any age. It usually does not improve function or vision but does normalize the appearance. There are many types of strabismus. Migraines can be due to a number of things, all of which are unlikely to be related to CdLS. The most common cause is that it runs in the family. The eyes are often involved in migraine headaches

The eyes and the visual system

R36

Surgical correction of ptosis should be considered if vision is significantly affected or if the individual is lifting their chin in attempt to see more clearly and it is affecting the individual’s ability to move around.

R37

Blepharitis in individuals with CdLS should be treated conservatively with lid hygiene. Nasolacrimal duct obstruction (blocked tear ducts) should be suspected if symptoms are not improved with lid hygiene.

R38

Vision should be regularly evaluated in all individuals with CdLS, especially in infancy and childhood. Problems with vision should be corrected early to prevent amblyopia (lazy eye), although children may have difficulty tolerating glasses or contact lenses.
