S
quint or strabismus is a common ocular disorder seen by all ophthalmologists but at present is managed
by squint specialists. Squint is characterized by abnormal ocular deviation where there is loss of ocular par-
allelism. The abnormal ocular deviation can be inwards, outwards, downwards and oblique. One of the most
important things not only to correct the abnormal angle of deviation but to achieve normal vision, for this early
diagnosis and proper management in time is very important, if the squint is neglected the eye becomes lazy
and then the treatment will be only cosmetic. One of the most important causes are uncharacted refractive er-
rors an anisometropia. At present children in the age group of five to nine years are abusing mobiles and play-
ing games for a very long time, so they present as eye ache, headache, eye strain, irritability, vertigo, vomiting,
change in behaviour of child and even epileptic like attacks. It can even go to delayed milestones even diplopia
and squint has been observed, so its important for the parents’ to refrain the children from mobile abuse and
indulge them to physical activities. Most important things in assessment of squint is recording of visual acuity
mydriatic refraction and funds examination, because there are some conditions in children like retino blastoma
and coats disease which can present as squint. Bilateral alternating esotropia can present as crossed fixation,
uncrossed fixation, AV pattern, broad angle, overaction of oblique, covering the dominant eye will make the
child to cry. Squint can be esotropia, exotropia, hypotropia, psedophoria, hetrophoria, orthophoria, cyclopho-
ria and microtropia.
