my child has a squint and I'm worried if it can be treated or if it might go away as they grow older at what age is surgery usually recommended for correcting squint
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A squint can be treated with glasses, eye exercises, or surgery, depending on severity. Surgery is typically recommended if the condition persists after the age of 3-4 years.

My vision is 66 in both eyes with glasses and I have a high power of 7D. Is Lasik surgery an option for me to get rid of glasses and have normal vision?
With power of -7D, LASIK is possible if corneal thickness allows; consult for topography—options like SMILE or ICL may be better in high myopia.
