*⚡Strabismus* , commonly known as " *crossed eyes* " or " *squint* ," is a condition where the eyes do not properly align with each other when looking at an object.
There are several types of strabismus, including:
👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
💫 **Esotropia**: One or both eyes turn inward toward the nose.
💫**Exotropia**: One or both eyes turn outward toward the ear.
💫 **Hypertropia**: One eye turns upward.
4. **Hypotropia**: One eye turns downward.
⚡Strabismus can lead to complications such as *amblyopia* ( *lazy eye* ), where the brain starts to ignore input from the misaligned eye, leading to reduced vision in that eye. It can also cause double vision (diplopia) and issues with depth perception.
