A member asked:
Is it possible to get surgery for squint (strabismus)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Strabismus surgery is usually done by ophthalmologists that have done additional training in this delicate area of eye muscle surgery. Many are affiliated with children's hospitals (more kids need it than adults) or located in larger metropolitan areas.
