I've had a squint eye since birth and I'm 24 now. If I get surgery for it, could it affect my vision? I'd like to know more about how squint surgery works and what to expect I've also attached a photo of my eyes for reference.

My mom has had two laser surgeries for retina detachment and is currently using drops for a mild infection. Now she needs cataract surgery where would be the best place to get it done given her history?
Given retinal history, cataract surgery should be done at a center with retinal backup—look for a tertiary eye care hospital or retina specialist for best outcome.

I'm 17 with a -20 diopter prescription and really want to ditch glasses for good. Is LASIK an option for me or are there other permanent vision correction surgeries that would work better for my high prescription? I'm worried my eyes might be too bad for regular laser surgery
You'll need to wait for 2-3 more years, till your glass power stabilizes. After that you can visit your local ophthalmologist who will do a couple of tests and then advise what kind of refractive surgery is apt for you. Till then you can use glasses or contact lenses , as per your convenience.
