Squint (Strabismus) Correction
Squint occurs when the eyes don't align and point in different directions. Left untreated, it can lead to amblyopia (lazy eye) and permanently reduced vision.
- Detailed evaluation of eye alignment & muscle imbalance

- Congenital cataract detection & surgery
- Childhood-onset cataract management
- Early intervention to protect long-term vision

Amblyopia Screening & Treatment
Amblyopia develops when the brain favours one eye over the other during early childhood — it's treatable, but only within a critical window.

- Routine check-ups to track visual development

FAQs About Dr. Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal
Common questions parents search about squint, lazy eye and pediatric eye care in Delhi.
Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal is a pediatric eye specialist in Delhi at Save Sight Centre, trained at Lady Hardinge Medical College, MAMC (Guru Nanak Eye Centre) and LV Prasad Eye Institute, Hyderabad, with expertise in squint correction and pediatric cataract surgery.
The right age depends on the type and severity of squint — some cases are treated early in infancy, while others are monitored and corrected later in childhood. Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal assesses each child individually to determine the right timing.
In many cases, yes. Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal often tries glasses or vision therapy first, and recommends surgery only when these non-surgical methods aren't enough to correct the alignment.
Yes, when performed by an experienced specialist like Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal, squint surgery is generally safe and effective, with most children recovering within a few days.
Amblyopia is reduced vision in one eye because the brain favours the other eye during early visual development. It's treatable, but works best when caught early — which is why Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal stresses timely eye exams for children.
Watch for an eye turning inward, outward or drifting, head tilting, frequent eye rubbing, sitting too close to screens, or avoiding reading. If you notice these, consult a pediatric eye specialist.
Yes, this is called a congenital cataract. Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal performs early surgical intervention in such cases, since delayed treatment can affect a child's visual development.
Pediatric cataract surgery requires specialised technique and closer post-operative monitoring, since a child's eye is still developing. Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal's training in pediatric ophthalmology is specifically suited to these cases.
Dr. Himshikha Aggarwal recommends routine eye check-ups from infancy, with particular attention around 6 months, 1-3 years, and before starting school, so any issue is caught while it's still easiest to treat.
