Squint treatment, squint eye treatment, treatment of squint in children, भेंगापन का इलाज—these are some of the most common concerns parents have when they notice misalignment in their child’s eyes. In this short video by Dr. Sumit Gupta from ASG Eye Hospital explains a very important point: not all squint cases require surgery.

इस वीडियो में ASG Eye Hospital के Dr. Sumit Gupta बताते हैं कि हर squint case में ऑपरेशन जरूरी नहीं होता।

Many parents panic when they see their child’s eyes not aligned properly and immediately assume that squint surgery is the only solution. However, the reality is that not all squint cases require surgery. Proper diagnosis is the most important step before deciding the treatment.

Step 1: Proper Diagnosis is Important

Before deciding any treatment, a detailed eye checkup is required at a trusted center like ASG Eye Hospital. Treatment depends completely on the cause of squint.

किसी भी इलाज से पहले सही diagnosis बहुत जरूरी है। ASG Eye Hospital जैसे specialized center में जांच के बाद ही सही treatment तय किया जाता है।

Step 2: Can Squint Be Treated with Glasses?

If the squint is caused by refractive error (eye number), it can often be corrected with glasses. In such cases, surgery is not required.

अगर भेंगापन आंखों के नंबर (refractive error) की वजह से है, तो इसे चश्मे से ठीक किया जा सकता है। ऐसे मामलों में ऑपरेशन की जरूरत नहीं होती।

Step 3: When is Surgery Required?

If squint cannot be corrected with glasses or other non-surgical methods, then surgery may be needed to align the eyes properly.

अगर चश्मे या अन्य तरीकों से भेंगापन ठीक नहीं होता, तो आंखों को सीधा करने के लिए ऑपरेशन की जरूरत पड़ सकती है।

Key Takeaway

The most important message is that squint treatment is not the same for everyone. Some children need only glasses, while others may require surgery.

सबसे जरूरी बात यह है कि हर बच्चे का इलाज अलग होता है। कुछ बच्चों का इलाज चश्मे से हो सकता है, जबकि कुछ को ऑपरेशन की जरूरत पड़ सकती है।

What is Squint Eye?

Squint is a condition where the eyes are not properly aligned and may point in different directions. It is common in children and should not be ignored.

भेंगापन एक ऐसी स्थिति है जिसमें आंखें एक दिशा में फोकस नहीं करतीं और अलग-अलग दिशा में मुड़ जाती हैं। यह बच्चों में आम है और इसे नजरअंदाज नहीं करना चाहिए।

When Should You See a Doctor?

If your child’s eyes appear misaligned or do not focus properly, consult a squint specialist at ASG Eye Hospital immediately for proper evaluation.

अगर बच्चे की आंखें तिरछी दिखती हैं या सही से फोकस नहीं कर पातीं, तो तुरंत ASG Eye Hospital के specialist से संपर्क करें।

Early diagnosis + right treatment = Better vision outcomes for your child.
