I'm wondering how to fix one crossed eye for a 15 year oldd?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Crossed eye: You child has some type of strabismus, and should be evaluated as to the cause and also for correction by an ophthalmologist. Pediatric ophthalmologists and some general ophthalmologists do surgery to help correct some types of strabismus routintely. You should understand, and discuss with your doctor, that their vision likely won't change, and the eye may drift back out over time after surgery.
