Strabismus - how slow is eye deterioration ? Posted: 10-15-07 10:39am
I have been having symptoms of strabismus
where by my left eye goes upwards when i
focus on something...its not constant and
only happens when i focus on certain
distances and object sizes..
If i focus on a dot at arms length for
example it then turns upwards.
I am going to the opticians in 2 weeks
time to get it checked out but wondered
how quickly can the weak eye loose it's
vision? I been having the affect since
june time and its now October and the eye
has lost some vision but not a "massive"
amount in that time...
Was just curious how slow is the
deterioration usually and does the eye
tend to just loose its vision gradually or
is it sudden?
Also i was wondering what can i do whilst
i wait to visit the opticians to reduce
the weak eye from getting any worse?

the deterioration is rather slow, i know
thsi becuase ive had it all my life,
somethings such as glasses or patching the
eye make it better as soon as you stop it
will deteriorate
