    Why are so many people told they can't have squint surgery?

    Squint surgery, also known as strabismus surgery, is a procedure designed to correct misalignment of the eyes. It can improve both the appearance of the eyes and, in many cases, help restore better vision or depth perception. However, many patients seeking help for squint find themselves told by ophthalmologists that surgery isn’t an option for them.
