Squint surgery has no relation with vision. Kindly consult local squint specialist

How can I fix my eyesight without needing glasses? I really don't want to wear spectacles anymore. My eyes start hurting when I don't use them regularly. Are there any eye drops, medicines, or other natural ways to slowly reduce my power over time? I'm okay if it takes a year or longer I just want to avoid surgery and eventually stop wearing glasses. What would you suggest?
