At this age, surgery will be cosmetic. Many times the squinting eye is lazy or amblyopic. The vision in either eye will remain the same as it was after surgery . However, surgery will be 100% safe and will dramatically improve the self esteem of the child. Maskati eye clinic, Opposite Charni Rd stn east, Mumbai.
