I've had a squint in my right eye since childhood but it's become more noticeable lately. I'm 28 now are there non-surgical ways to fix this? Could special glasses or eye exercises help correct it?

In such cases, corrective eyeglasses or contact lenses can help by adjusting the focus, allowing the eyes to align more naturally. This is a squint eye treatment in adults that may be practical for addressing refractive errors. Prescription eyewear compensates for vision issues that might lead to squinting

My uncle has degenerative myopia and optic atrophy according to his medical reports, but CNVM isn't mentioned. The doctors we've seen say there's no cure for his condition, but I heard CNVM might have treatment options. How can we find out if he has CNVM? Are there specific tests or symptoms we should look for?

To determine if your uncle has myopic CNVM, it's crucial to seek a comprehensive eye exam and imaging tests. While CNVM is a condition associated with degenerative myopia, it's not always present and might not be immediately apparent during a routine eye exam
