Can strabismus develop in teen years?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: Decompensation of a tendency toward strabismus can appear in the teen years as the eye grows and optical correction changes. New onset strabismus must be evaluated for possible medical causes.

Yes but not typical: Eye turns can develop in the teens but are usually present before. A new onset eye turn requires evaluation by an eye doctor.
