The Effects of Increased Near Point Stress on the Visual System of Pediatric Patients with Strabismus

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, school closures resulted in children participating in remote learning and a subsequent increase in near demand associated with increased computer work. Prolonged near work has been shown to impact the visual system and possibly myopia progression. This case series shows the functional visual effects near point stress may have on pediatric patients with strabismus.
