    Technically speaking, strabismus, or crossed eyes, is a condition when one or both eyes turns in or out, up or down. As a result, , eyes do not look at the same place at the same time, commonly resulting from the failure of the brain to coordinate both eyes simultaneously. As for the double vision, it usually causes by independent individual work of each eye. The poor eye muscle control or a high amount of farsightedness can attribute to this symptoms. I mean, each eye creats its own, faintly different image. And if you let things slide when you suffer the crossed eyes, the eye muscles may damaged, or even the nerves, the muscles may not be able to control the eyes correctly, resulting in double vision. The major control center of vision is our brain. So it has the possibility for those with crossed eyes to see double vision. See your doctor and he can give you more details.

    When you have the crossed eyes, your two eyes will squint at the center point. It will be the center line. People with crossed eyes will see double vision. If your eyes are normal and are not crossed, you will focus your eyes at the same object. The objects will be in the eyes of retinal imaging and visual center in the brain overlap. This is called binocular single view. However people with crossed eyes will have one eye or two eyes pupil often tilt toward the middle. You could observe it easily. The looking way is always looking like two chickens a pipe rack. It is so also known as crossed eyes. They will see things not that clear. They may sometimes see one object in two images.
