Yes: If a lazy eye has been present since youth, it can be surgically corrected at age 25 or older. A child who has the procedure may retain straight eyes permanently. But there is an increased chance in an adult who undergoes the procedure that the eye will turn again.

Yes to eye muscles: The muscles can be repaired, but the lazy eye vision will not change.
