Research progress of microstrabismus

Abstract

Microstrabismus is a kind of small angle strabismus, sometimes negative in cover test, accompanied by clinical characteristics such as abnormal retinal correspondence, eccentric fixation, amblyopia and rough stereopsis. Microstrabismus amblyopia treatment is very difficult, especially in eccentric fixation. In daily diagnosis and treatment, the microstrabismus often misdiagnosed due to the small squint degree and the negative coverage test, failed to be treated properly and in-time, the patient's eccentric fixation and fixation instability also been ignored, treated as normal amblyopia, while the result is not effective, sometimes even leads opposite effect, so it's important to recognize the microstrabismus.
