A member asked:
Is it possible to straighten your eyes if you have crossed eyes, without surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Crossed eyes are known as strabismus. There are many criteria which need to be examined in order to determine how strabismus is best corrected. In some cases, certain eye excercises can minimize and even eliminate strabismus, in others, surgical correction is necessary. See an eye doctor specializing in adult strabismus correction.
