Apparently, too much smartphone usage could cause convergent strabismus.
One or both of the eyes may turn in, out, up or down.
The study also found that the children held smartphones too close to their face.
The researchers said that the condition is becoming more prevalent in children when it had previously been quite rare.
This, they say, proves the link between excessive smartphone usage and the condition.
Children showing signs of deviated eyes should consult a doctor immediately, they added.
Reducing the risk of convergent strabismus seems like another worthy reason to install it.
