Why do strabismus surgery do two eyes, one large and one small

After strabismus surgery, it may be normal to have two eyes, one large and one small, or it may be caused by improper postoperative care, wound infection, etc.

1. Normal phenomenon: If the patient chooses muscle shortening surgery during strabismus surgery, the patient's muscles will be cut off during the operation, so the two eyes will be different in size. It is generally a normal physiological phenomenon, and there is no need for special treatment or over-worrying, and the symptoms can gradually improve over time.

2. Improper postoperative care: If the patient does not do a good job of eye care after strabismus surgery, and often rubs the eyes with his hands, it may cause local irritation, resulting in the above situation.At this time, it can be relieved by warm compress, or it can be treated with drugs such as tobramycin eye drops and levofloxacin eye drops as prescribed by the doctor.

3. Wound infection: If the individual's immunity is low and the person does not pay attention to hand hygiene, after being infected by bacteria, it will also induce an inflammatory reaction, which will affect the speed of wound healing, and even be accompanied by symptoms such as redness, swelling and pain. At this time, you can take antibiotic drugs such as amoxicillin capsules and cefixime capsules according to the doctor's instructions, and at the same time, you should keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid getting wet, so as not to aggravate the condition.

In addition, it may be related to factors such as scarring, and it is recommended to seek medical examination and treatment in time.
