Squint (Strabismus) is a condition where the eyes are not properly aligned and may look in different directions. It can affect both children and adults and may lead to vision problems if not treated early.

Symptoms

• Eyes not aligned or pointing in different directions
• Double vision
• Difficulty in focusing
• Eye strain or headaches
• Tilting or closing one eye while looking

Causes

• Weak or imbalanced eye muscles
• Nerve-related issues
• Uncorrected refractive errors
• Congenital (present from birth)
• Injury or underlying medical conditions
