I'm a 27-year-old guy with good vision but I have a lazy eye. Sometimes my left eye drifts outward and other times it's my right eye. Is there a permanent surgery to fix this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, a type of surgery called strabismus surgery can address eye misalignment, including drifting or wandering eyes (exotropia), and can potentially correct or improve the issue. However, it's important to understand that this surgery corrects the eye misalignment, and not necessarily the "lazy eye" or amblyopia itself

i've had a minor squint for about 15 years after an accident most of the time it looks normal but sometimes it's noticeable would exercises help fix it or is surgery the only option
Minor squints can often be treated with exercises, but surgery may be required if exercises don’t provide sufficient improvement. Consult an ophthalmologist or optometrist for a customized treatment plan.

I had PRK surgery 4 months ago and my right eye is 66 vision while the left is 69. With pinhole, the left eye goes to 66. My doctor found a scratch on the corneal stroma in my left eye and prescribed fluorometholone drops with lubricants. I've been using them for 2 months but my vision isn't improving to match the right eye. Why isn't it getting better and what else can be done?
After PRK surgery, if your vision hasn’t improved, the cause might be related to the corneal scratch or dry eye. Further treatments like additional lubrication, steroids, or corrective measures may be required.
