Information About Strabismus Services

Strabismus is a condition where the eye does not align with one another when focusing on a particular object. Patients can exhibit different types, including exotropia, esotropia, double vision, Duane syndrome, and Brown syndrome. Depending on the severity of your condition, we provide eyeglasses, eye exercises, or eye patches. For more severe cases, patients may need strabismus surgery to address the issue. Please schedule an appointment at Ticho Eye Associates in Chicago Ridge, IL, Tinley Park, IL, or Munster, IN to learn more about the eye care treatments available to you.

Double vision (diplopia) affects one or both eyes, causing the brain to see two images of one object at the same time, leading to other vision issues.
