Strabismus, commonly known as 'crossed eyes,' involves misalignment of the visual axes of both eyes and can cause symptoms like diplopia, blurring of vision, and headaches. Diagnostic evaluations include visual acuity tests and various other assessments. Management options consist of non-surgical methods like corrective lenses and prismatic glasses, as well as surgical interventions to adjust the extraocular muscles.
