Lost time in childhood strabismus is the risk of persistent amblyopia and loss of binocular vision, which cannot be restored in adulthood. The course covers the full cycle of managing concomitant strabismus in children: diagnosis, conservative and surgical treatment, rehabilitation, and prevention.

You will confidently detect pathology at early stages and build a staged strategy aimed at preserving the child's visual functions. Parents will receive a clear plan, and your practice — the reputation of a thoughtful pediatric specialist.
