Squint in right eye
My son has a squint in right eye. We noticed few months after his birth. We want to know how it can be cured / treated.
Additionally, although we have limited his screen time to 1-2 hours max in a day, but from last few days we are noticing him rubbing his right eye quite a lot.
Due to Covid -19 crisis, we are restraining ourselves for a physical visit to an ophthalmologist but would be willing to pay a visit should the same is required so.

You should consult an ophthalmologist in clinic. His eyes are to be checked after dilating his pupil.
You should not wait for COVID to be over because this is his crucial age for visual development.
He needs treatment at this stage. It might be too late if you do not consult an ophthalmologist at earliest possible.
