For Alexander, seeing the world clearly changed everything.
What first appeared to be a common eye concern was later diagnosed as an extremely rare form of strabismus, one that only a handful of specialists worldwide have experience treating. Through careful analysis, collaboration across specialties, and a personalized surgical plan led by Dr. Andrew Malem, Staff Physician in Ophthalmology at the Integrated Surgical Institute, our team cared for Alexander and his family at every stage of his journey.
