Strabismus

Στραβισμός σημαίνει ότι τα μάτια του ασθενή δεν εστιάζονται συγχρόνως πάνω στον ίδιο στόχο. Υπάρχουν πολλοί τύποι στραβισμού όπως ο συγκλίνων, ο αποκλίνων, ο κάθετος, ενώ κάποιοι από αυτούς (ιδιαίτερα σε μεγάλα παιδιά και ενήλικες) μπορεί να συνοδεύονται και από διπλωπία.

Nystagmus

Nystagmus means that the patient’s eyes show a continuous rhythmic movement, which blurs his vision.

The causes of both strabismus and nystagmus vary, as do their treatment methods.

Diplopia

The patient with diplopia sees the targets double and faces many daily problems (difficulty in balance and movement, hand-eye coordination, driving, etc.). Solutions with special glasses, exercises or special surgical interventions can relieve the patient immediately.
