Dr. Ghufran Alarfaj helps assess and follow conditions related to pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus, and determining the appropriate plan depends on the child’s age, vision examination results, and eye movement assessment.
The examination helps assess the alignment and movement of the eyes, identify the type of strabismus and the extent of its effect on vision, then determine whether the condition requires follow-up or other treatment options after assessment.
Poor vision in children may be related to a difference in vision between the two eyes or to strabismus. The child’s examination helps assess vision in each eye and determine whether there are signs that require follow-up for lazy eye in children.
An eye movement examination allows assessment of the direction of deviation and how well the eyes work together, which is an important part of evaluating strabismus in children.
As Dr. Ghufran Alarfaj works within the Strabismus Surgery and Pediatric Ophthalmology Unit, cases that may require surgical intervention for strabismus can be assessed, with the decision made after completing the vision and eye movement examinations.
An eye examination helps assess visual clarity and vision problems in the child and determine whether the condition requires follow-up in pediatric ophthalmology or additional examinations.
Medical Note: The cause of a vision problem or the appropriate treatment cannot be determined based on symptoms alone. The doctor determines the plan after examining the child and completing the medical assessment.
