A member asked:
Can you tell me about being born with a squint?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Squint: is an imbalance in the muscles that move the eye so they do not move together for convergent vision. It is often inherited and may require surgery for correction of the divergent gaze. Others may do well with glasses that force they eyes to converge. An ophthalmologist should be consulted as soon as possible.
