Clinical Investigations on Squint by C. Schweigger
"Clinical Investigations on Squint" by C. Schweigger is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This monograph delves deeply into the complexities of strabismus, commonly known as squinting, exploring its causes, classifications, and implications for vision. The focus lies on understanding both convergent and divergent squint, presenting statistical insights and clinical observations, which would appeal to ophthalmic surgeons and medical students alike. The opening of the work introduces readers to
the multifaceted nature of squint, setting the stage for the examination of various types such as ordinary, periodic, paralytic, and typical squint. Schweigger emphasizes the importance of differentiating real squint from mere optical misinterpretation, further asserting that visual axes can significantly deviate from their intended alignment. He notes that many cases of apparent squint do not indicate a true condition but rather are the result of parental anxieties or misinterpretations. The text promises a thorough exploration of squint's correlation with refractive errors and its implications for treatment, which sets a serious yet insightful tone for the detailed discussions to come.
