Squint is unfortunately a neglected subject in our country. It is considered only a cosmetic problem without realising that any manifest squint is a one eyed blindness which results in lack of binocular vision. Consequently there is no stereopsis. The management should be undertaken at the earliest possible age when development of uni-ocular as well as binocular vision is taking place. Once the visual system is mature, only cosmetic appearance can be improved, but not the vision.
不幸的是，斜视在我国是一个被忽视的课题。它仅仅被视为一个外观问题，却没有意识到任何明显的斜视都是一种单眼失明，会导致双眼视觉缺失。因此也就没有立体视觉。治疗应在单眼和双眼视觉发育的尽可能早的年龄进行。一旦视觉系统成熟，就只能改善外观，而无法改善视力了。
