Adult strabismus
I have strabismus since childhood now I'm 26.i can align straight my both eyes for some minutes by forcing medial muscles of both eye without diplopia. I want to have a surgery but when i consulted a specialist he told me,"I can do full correction because of your positive post-op diplopia test.if i do,you'll have diplopia for rest of your life."
I don't know how I'll have diplopia after surgery even when i can align both eyes straight forcefully without diplopia before surgery.

This could be due abnormal retinal correspondence (ARC)which prevents Diplopia in presence of squint..so when squint is corrected ARC is overcome and diplopia occurs
