Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Cricket ball injury and diminished vision.In such injury it can be lens iris vitreous hemorrhage which can diminish vision. squint can ocuer in ocular muscle injury. After assessing the degree of squint muscle shortening or lengthening is done. Since both eye muscle have synchronized move correction in both eye may have to be done. Some time cosmetic correction of one muscle in one eye is done. Refraction is to be done first.
