My eyes squint whenever I take off my high-power glasses, and I can't wear them outside. Is there any way to treat squint eyes without surgery? Would contact lenses help with this issue?

Yes, there are non-surgical treatment options for squint eyes, and contact lenses could be one of them, especially if your squint is related to a refractive error. Vision therapy, eye patching, and prism glasses are other non-surgical approaches. If your squint is caused by a refractive error (like nearsightedness or farsightedness), wearing the correct prescription glasses or contact lenses can help align your eyes and reduce squinting.
