My 5-year-old daughter has a squint in one eye that comes and goes it moves back to normal on its own. She does have eyesight issues, and I've noticed when she focuses, one eye drifts toward her nose. Is there a way to treat this without surgery? Also, could you recommend some good doctors for this?
