Beautifying eyes for hundreds of patients suffering from squint or strabismus

Squint is the condition when the both eyes point in different direction. Squint could be hereditary, or caused due to severe illness at the time of birth. Poor vision in one eye can stop the brain to use that eye properly, thereby causing horizontal or vertical misalignment. Know more about strabismus.

Squint should be treated at an early age as delay can affect the vision permanently. Some people can experience double vision due to squints. Another condition commonly known as lazy eye or amblyopia is also caused in a squinting eye. Know more about amblyopia.
