Expert Squint & Paediatric Eye Care in Bangalore
– The Eye Foundation, Bellandur

Welcome to Squint & Paediatric Ophthalmology in Bangalore at The Eye Foundation, Bellandur. If you're searching for expert care
for your child's eye alignment (squint) or for comprehensive paediatric eye health in Bangalore, you're in the right place.

What is squint (strabismus) and why paediatric eye care matters

A squint (or misalignment of the eyes) means the eyes do not point in exactly the same direction. In children, this can lead to issues like lazy eye (amblyopia), poor binocular vision (ability to see depth and work together), and cosmetic concerns. Early detection means better outcomes increasingly so in early childhood.

Paediatric ophthalmology covers all eye health and vision issues in children (typically aged 0-15). At The Eye Foundation, our paediatric specialists not only treat squint but also address refractive errors, amblyopia (lazy eye), childhood cataracts/glaucoma, developmental vision concerns and more.

Signs to watch for:

  • One eye turning in, out, up or down
  • Squint seen intermittently, or only when child is tired
  • Complaints of double vision, reading difficulty or one eye closing
  • Child tilting their head or approaching books unusually
  • Poor performance in visual tasks despite normal glasses

If you spot any of these signs in your child in the Bangalore / Bellandur region, schedule a screening promptly.

Squint & Paediatric Eye Care

Treatment Options

At The Eye Foundation, Bellandur, we offer a full suite of options for squint & paediatric ophthalmology:

Non-surgical management

  • Prescription glasses to correct refractive error, which may reduce or eliminate the squint in some children
  • Vision therapy / orthoptics (eye-muscle exercises, binocular vision training)
  • Patching or penalisation therapy for amblyopia ('lazy eye')
  • Regular monitoring and follow-up, especially in younger children with intermittent squint

Surgical & advanced interventions

  • Squint surgery to realign the eye muscles for persistent or significant misalignment
  • Adjustable sutures / fine-tuning alignment post-surgery
  • Combined paediatric ophthalmology care: If your child has cataract, glaucoma, retinal issues alongside a squint, our team coordinates the comprehensive treatment plan giving you one-stop care.
  • Post-operative follow-up, binocular vision enhancement, and long-term monitoring of alignment and vision health

We tailor the treatment plan based on your child's age, type of squint (convergent, divergent, vertical), whether amblyopia is present, binocular vision status, and overall eye health. Early intervention gives the best chance of restoring good vision and eliminating cosmetic concerns.

FAQs on Squint & Paediatric Eye Care in Bangalore

Ideally as soon as the deviation is persistent and binocular vision is at risk. Early childhood (around 3-7 yrs) is a key window. But older children and even adults can benefit too.

Surgery aligns the eyes, but if amblyopia (lazy eye) or refractive error is present, glasses or therapy may still be needed. Follow-up care is essential.

Most children are back to normal activity in a few days; full alignment and binocular vision improvement may take weeks to months.

Costs vary by complexity and age. We provide transparent cost ranges above. In Bellandur, our aim is to offer high-quality care with clear pricing.

We specialise in paediatric ophthalmology & squint (children up to ~15-18 yrs), but our strabismus team can also manage adults with residual or recurrent squint.
