    Strabismus is a lifelong issue. It can cause physical, social and psychological problems.
    Because the eyes do not function as a team, depth perception can be problematic. It is difficult to judge where you are in space. To a normal sighted person small changes on the ground are easily navigated. But these can cause falls, twisted ankles or just plain clumsiness when your vision doesn’t fuse. Hiking or climbing may be scary especially when the ground looks closer or further than it actually is. The eyes have a difficulty responding to activity that requires strong hand eye coordination. Therefore any sport that requires the use of a ball can be difficult. Activities that use motion can cause vertigo and/or nausea. Swinging on a swing and amusement park rides can be disorienting. Driving can be overwhelming. They may avoid physical activity. For a child, this invites teasing and bullying.
    Having crossed eye can cause social issues. People don’t always trust you when you look shifty eyed. They often ignore your suggestions because crossed eyes must mean you’re not very bright. When your eyes are out of alignment others can’t figure out if you are looking at them and engaged in the conversation. Looking at your eyes may be uncomfortable or distracting to them. People with strabismus may learn to avert their eyes for these reasons. This further erodes social interaction.
    The stress of bullying and social pressures can cause depression and anxiety. People with strabismus may feel that there is something wrong with them, they don’t fit in. Because it is often a birth defect, treatments as a child may have been confusing, embarrassing or painful. They may have unanswered questions or misconceptions about care received as a child. This can cause a feeling of disconnectedness to parts of their own lives and complicate treatment as an adult. Strabismus may have also caused stresses within the family that can cause lingering questions and concerns.
    Because strabismus is thought of as a childhood issue, finding continuity of care as an adult can be difficult. Many insurance companies do not cover long term care with an ophthalmologist. Optometrists are sometimes unsure of how to approach a person with unaligned eyes. Corrections completed as a child, may shift or weaken over time. Redoing surgeries can be harder because of scar tissue. Binocular vision will be more difficult to achieve. There may be added visual issues added during aging. Strabismus is complicated with lifelong consequences.

    Aside from squint and thyroid eye disease , it throws my balance off and thus affects my confidence among other things. It sucks.

      It's just hard living with this. Those of us who are worried about others noticing are always looking away or looking down... It drains confidence
