Do my eyes go crossed eyed because of contacts?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Crossed eyes and contacts are not related. There are several reasons why eyes might cross; poor vision, lazy eye (amblyopia), strabismus, etc. Many times the situation can be corrected by a pediatric ophthalmologist...They specialize in crossed eyes.
