Strabismus, commonly known as a squint, is a condition where the eyes do not line up properly and point in different directions. One eye may look straight ahead, while the other turns inwards, outwards, upwards, or downwards. This can affect vision, depth perception, and appearance. Fortunately, surgery can help correct this misalignment.

Adult & Pediatric Strabismus Correction: Strabismus surgery can be performed on both children and adults to improve eye alignment. In children, early treatment is important to allow for healthy vision development. For adults, surgery can improve vision, reduce double vision, and enhance the cosmetic appearance of the eyes.

Eye Muscle Surgery & Alignment Procedures: The surgery itself involves adjusting the eye muscles to bring the eyes into the correct position. The surgeon may tighten, loosen, or move one or more of the muscles that control eye movement. This is a common and generally safe procedure that aims to help the eyes work together as a team.
