View allI have a squint eye and heard it might not be fully correctable as an adult. What kind of improvement can I expect from cosmetic squint surgery, and what are the costs and risks involved? One of my eyes has also become lazy.
Squint surgery in adults can significantly improve eye alignment, reduce or eliminate double vision, and boost self-confidence. While it can't always fully correct the issue, it often provides substantial improvements in function and appearance. Lazy eye can also be treated, and surgical correction of the squint may enhance the lazy eye's ability to function. The cost of surgery varies, but it's generally considered a safe procedure

I've had a partial squint since birth where one eye stays centered when I look to the side left eye when looking right, right eye when looking left. But both eyes work fine when looking straight ahead. Is there a surgery to fix this now? If yes, can you suggest hospitals and contact details?

What's the difference in recovery time between Indian and imported lenses for cataract surgery if I go with phaco? The Indian lens needs a 2.8 mm incision while the imported one only needs 1.8 mm does the smaller cut mean faster healing? I'm trying to decide which option is better for me
Yes, generally, a smaller incision in cataract surgery, like the 1.8 mm incision for imported lenses, does tend to lead to faster recovery time. This is because smaller incisions result in less trauma to the eye tissue, which translates to less inflammation and quicker healing. While both Indian and imported lenses can be used with phacoemulsification, the smaller incision size of MICS (Micro-Incision Cataract Surgery) can lead to a faster recovery.
