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.

Understanding squint: A comprehensive overview

In his latest online article, Mr Nadeem Ali gives us his insights into squint surgery. Squint, also known as strabismus, is a medical condition impacting the eyes. In individuals with a squint, one eye does not align correctly with the other. This misalignment can manifest as the affected eye turning inward toward the nose, outward, upward, or downward. The squint may be constant or intermittent, and the individual might have partial or no control over it. Squinting can involve one eye exclusively or alternate between both. While squints are often associated with a lazy eye (amblyopia), where one eye has impaired vision since childhood, they can also occur in otherwise healthy eyes with good vision. Squints may develop in childhood or adulthood, and most cases are not caused by serious underlying medical conditions. Squinting is sometimes colloquially referred to as cross-eye, lazy eye, boss eye, or wall eye.
