Alternating Squint Since Birth

Hi Doctors, I am a 24-year-old male with alternating squint (strabismus) since birth. I can focus with either eye, and when I use one eye, the other eye turns outward. The squint is noticeable, and people often comment on it, which has affected my confidence and eye contact. I also have difficulty seeing distant objects, but my main concern is correcting the squint, not the blurred vision. I would like to know if I am still a suitable candidate for strabismus surgery at my age. Can surgery significantly improve the alignment of my eyes even though the condition has been present since birth? Would the surgery usually be performed on one eye or both? What is the success rate, what are the chances of needing a second surgery, and what are the major risks or complications? Also, is this type of surgery generally covered by health insurance in India if it is affecting daily life and confidence? Thank you
