People can take a shower starting from the third day after the surgery. However, care should be taken to avoid water coming into contact with the eyes during the first 10 days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The eye drops recommended by your doctor should be used regularly and for the recommended period. Generally, eye drops are required for 15 days to 1 month. In some cases, this period may extend up to 2 months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">After strabismus surgery<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> , people with eye misalignment and visual impairment may need to continue using glasses. Glasses and occlusion therapy can also be used to support the surgical process. If the use of glasses is necessary, make sure that glasses treatment is applied regularly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Strabismus Surgery Duration<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Eye misalignment<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> is a health problem that develops as a result of the eyes losing their parallelism with each other. It can be seen in both eyes. Eye deviation may occur <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lotusgoz.com\/gozde-ice-kayma\/\"><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">inwards<\/span><\/strong><\/a><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> , <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lotusgoz.com\/gozde-disa-kayma\/\"><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">outwards<\/span><\/strong><\/a><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> or <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lotusgoz.com\/gozde-yukari-kayma\/\"><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">upwards<\/span><\/strong> <\/a><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> . Eye strain, which occurs at all ages, is a health problem that needs intervention. As the angle of deviation of the eye increases, visual disturbances may occur, and in later cases, blindness due to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lotusgoz.com\/goz-tembelligi\/\"><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">amblyopia<\/span><\/strong><\/a><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> may occur. Eye strain can be treated with early diagnosis and correct treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">The progression of eye misalignment can be stopped, controlled, or often partially treated with glasses, eye drop treatment, eye botox applications, or various exercises. The main form of treatment <\/span><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">for eye misalignment<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> is usually surgery. <\/span><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Strabismus surgery<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> is an intervention to the eye muscles. Thanks to the interventions, parallelism between both eyes is restored. With a successful surgery, <\/span><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">the eye misalignment problem<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> can usually be eliminated after a single surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Things to Know About Strabismus Surgery<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">People who are scheduled for surgical intervention in the treatment of eye strain<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> may experience minor tension. However, eye misalignment surgery has a standard surgical risk and is not a type of surgery that should cause concern. No pain is felt during the surgery, which is performed under general anesthesia in children and local anesthesia in adults.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">In eyelid surgery, the muscles are intervened in and the surgery is performed using microsurgical procedures without removing the eye from its socket. In some cases, intervention on the eyelid may also be required. If there is a condition such as a tumor in the eye underlying the strabismus, a surgery is planned to remove the tumor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">Strabismus surgery duration<\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"> is generally between 45 minutes and 1 hour. After the surgery, the patient rests in the hospital for 5-6 hours. Then, you can be discharged home on the same day. On the first day of surgery, the eye is covered with a bandage. On the day of surgery and the next day, the dressing is removed and the eye drops recommended by your doctor are used. These drops, which should be used for 15 days or 2 months, ensure complete healing of the eye.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\"><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"vertical-align: inherit;\">There is no specific age limit for <strong>strabismus surgeries<\/strong> .
