What can i do about exotropia?

See your eye doctor: Surgical intervention or vision therapy may be helpful.

Get an exam: Exotropia is a muscle imbalance that results in the two eyes appearing to look away from one another. Sometimes glasses will help, sometimes surgery can correct the condition.

Outward eye position: This is a condition, usually from childhood in which the eyes are out of alignment, and pointed away from each other. When due to childhood issues, usually the outward turned eye is suppressed and doubling of vision does not occur. If this starts in adulthood , then doubling will occur and some remedy is needed from your ophthalmologist.
