Misaligned eyes
Lately, I have started noticing a bit of a misalignment in my eyes. I can see properly but the pupil of my left eye has moved a bit inward. Could this Squint? How can I treat this? I have a desk job and have to work on computer all day. Currently I am using blue light block, numbered glasses. Also my number is cylindrical.
