Abstract

Strabismus remains a significant pediatric ocular issue, particularly in children under 6 and those with perinatal complications. Early screening and intervention in associated groups-such as preterm infants and those with developmental delays-are essential to reduce long-term visual impairment. Strengthening primary pediatric eye care is crucial for early detection and treatment.
