Astigmatism, Development Delay

2026-06-01 13:04:11
Hi, My son is around 3 years old and has a development delay. For a few weeks we have noticed that he put pressure on one corner of the eye with finger and then moved his both eyes to one corner and focused on objects which are little far. We visited the paediatric ophthalmologist today and he told us there is refractive error in both eyes and the dilated eye exam needs to be done after that he will be prescribed the number. Also, My kid had Dengue Shock Syndrome when he was 4-5 months old. How much do we need to worry about refractive error issues? Does he need to wear spect's lifetime? Does Dengue Shoch Syndrome have anything to do with this refractive error or my child's development delay? Also, he has some redness in the eyes, so the doctor prescribed moxicip d, moxicip, pataone eye drops for one week. Are these safe? And Does both adults and children both have the same drops?

From a homoeopathic perspective, refractive error is a structural issue and should be managed as advised by your paediatric ophthalmologist. Homeopathy aims to support the child’s overall health, development, and individual constitution but cannot replace spectacles when they are needed. Dengue Shock Syndrome is not considered a direct cause of refractive error. However, your child’s developmental delay should be evaluated and managed comprehensively by the treating specialists.
Health Tips
The prescribed eye drops are commonly used in children when indicated by an ophthalmologist. Please use them exactly as advised and complete the dilated eye examination.

There are multiple questions here. Let's answer them one by one. 1) yes, refractive errors at this age is worrisome as the child has to wear specs for lifetime and the numbers keep increasing with the age and it becomes difficult to see without glasses. 2) Having dengue shock syndrome at the if 4-5 months definitely has its implications on the future health. Having said that, it is not possible to establish direct connection between the dengue and refractive errors but it can also not be completely discarded. 3) About allopathic antibiotics prescribed. Yes they have side which is wel known. But they are less damaging then the infection. But it does not mean they are safe What is the alternative... I suggest homoeopathic treatment. Not replacing allopathic treatment with homoeopathic medicines but I would suggest supplementing initially. Once you see results gradually allopathic treatment can be discontinued and required less in future.

Refractive errors are common in children and can usually be managed well with timely correction and regular eye check-ups. The need for spectacles depends on the child’s eye development over time. Dengue shock syndrome is generally not related to refractive errors or developmental delay. For developmental concerns and overall well-being, an individualized homeopathic assessment may also be helpful. You may consult for a detailed evaluation.

Hello, Thank you for sharing your concerns in such detail. I can understand how worrying it must be to notice unusual eye movements and visual behaviors in your little one, especially when he already has developmental delays and a history of Dengue Shock Syndrome during infancy. First, I would like to reassure you that you have taken the right step by consulting a pediatric ophthalmologist. The dilated eye examination is very important because it will help determine the exact refractive error (eye power) and whether spectacles are required. Regarding refractive errors, they are quite common in children and can cause behaviors such as looking from the corners of the eyes, moving the eyes in unusual ways, squinting, sitting very close to screens, or holding objects unusually close. The need for spectacles depends on the degree of refractive error and your child's visual development. Some children may need glasses for several years, while in others the power may change as they grow. Concerning Dengue Shock Syndrome during infancy, refractive errors are generally not considered a direct consequence of dengue infection. However, because your child had a significant illness early in life along with developmental delays, it is worthwhile to evaluate his overall neurological and developmental progress in addition to the eye assessment. The eye drops prescribed by the ophthalmologist (Moxicip-D, Moxicip, and Pataone) are commonly used medications for eye infections, inflammation, or allergic conditions. When prescribed by a pediatric eye specialist and used according to instructions, they are generally considered safe for children. Please continue them exactly as advised. From a homeopathic perspective, while homeopathy can replace spectacles when a significant refractive error is present, it will also be helpful in supporting the child's overall health, immunity, recurrent allergies, eye-rubbing tendencies, constitutional weaknesses, developmental concerns, and associated behavioral symptoms. Homeopathic treatment focuses on the child as a whole rather than only the eye findings. In my practice, when assessing children with developmental delays, I evaluate: • Pregnancy and birth history • Milestone development • Speech and language development • Social interaction and behavior • Sleep patterns • Food preferences and sensitivities • Recurrent infections or allergies • Family history • Emotional and constitutional characteristics Based on the complete picture, an individualized homeopathic prescription may help support the child's overall development and well-being . To guide you better, I would like to know: • What type of developmental delay has been diagnosed? • Has he had speech delay, autism evaluation, occupational therapy, or developmental pediatric assessment? • Does he make good eye contact? • Is he able to recognize people and objects normally? • Does he frequently rub his eyes or seem sensitive to light? • Have you noticed any squinting or crossing of the eyes? • What were his developmental milestones such as sitting, walking, and speech? if you are intrested you can consult online, you can check our google reviews, Regards Dr Jyoti Kadkol Health Global Homoeopathy, Whitefield, Vijayanagar, www.healthglobalclinics.com
