A child will never grow out of a true strabismus. It is not uncommon for children to appear like they have a strabismus because the bridge of the nose has not developed. These children have epicanthal folds which causes a pseudo-strabismus. With the formation of the bridge of the nose the appearance of a strabismus disappears. Remember, these children never had a strabismus to grow out of.

Patching, glasses, or vision therapy does not help the eye turn. The chances of developing normal binocular vision with normal stereopsis are not good. However, the best chance is with early aggressive surgery. Both the parent and surgeon have to be committed to multiple procedures to obtain perfect alignment. Improved alignment may look better but it does not get the eyes to work together.
