Infantile esotropia linked with development delays
A study published in the April Journal of AAPOS (American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus Babies) has indicated that babies with an eye-alignment disorder called infantile esotropia have delays in motor development milestones, but development “catches up” after corrective surgery. Before surgery, infants with esotropia had delays in both sensorimotor and gross motor development. However, post-surgery, infants had no delays in developmental milestones and they actually had a faster rate of sensorimotor development, suggesting that correcting their binocular vision helped their development to “catch up” to that of normal infants.
