What Are Common Visual Problems in Children?

Despite the normal progression of visual development, some children may experience issues such as:
- Amblyopia (Lazy Eye): Often caused by strabismus, this condition leads to decreased vision in one eye.
- Strabismus (Crossed Eyes): Misalignment of the eyes that can cause double vision or amblyopia.
- Refractive Errors: Includes myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism, which can affect clear vision.
- Congenital Cataracts: Clouding of the lens that can lead to vision impairment if not treated early.
