I had squint surgery when I was 12 because my right eye had poor vision and a noticeable squint. Now my eye seems to have drifted around 25 degrees does this mean my squint is coming back and can I get a second surgery to fix it?
Squint recurrence timing varies by type. Esotropia (inward-turning eye) typically shows signs of recurrence within 1-2 years post-surgery. Exotropia (outward-turning eye) often demonstrates a more gradual drift, becoming noticeable 3-5 years after surgery
