    Thanks for the video! You look amazing. I have had a lazy eye all my life. I am now 26. I didn’t realize it at first, but one day my sister pointed it out to me when I was about 7. Every since, my confidence went downhill. I don’t socialize anymore and I don’t initiate conversations, because to have a conversation with someone, you have to look at them. I just had my consultation and I am due for surgery June! I am super excited but also extremely nervous.

      The exact same as me!!! It completely changed my life… I’m now a nurse, where conversations are integral. Before the surgery, i couldn’t look at you in the eye. Now, I’m so much more confident!

      There are a lot of vision therapies / exercises that the kid can do to correct it normally (train the brain). I've had strabismus (lazy right eye) since childhood and got the surgery done when I was 7 (am 30 now).
      Get her proper glasses and get her checked regularly since the vision imbalance is like the main cause for eyes drifting. Treat surgery as a last resort. My lazy eye started drifting away after the surgery by the time I was 13 / 14. With age my non-lazy eye has become normal (doesn't need any glasses) but my lazy eye still has the same nearsightedness like when I was 6/7...

    Thanks for the video Kyle. I just had the surgery, I would say 90% of my strabismus is gone. The 10% left, is only when I start to read something and my surgery eye is tired, it starts to drift a little bit. Do you feel similar symptoms? Do you wear glasses or do some post-surgery eye training?

I am so glad that my process to surgery has only been 6 months from my first exams. Definitely tons of exams, but not a delay for pre-op or surgery. Praise God. My eye is driving me nuts, I see double so badly right now that it has limited my driving capabilities to none.

    I think have a lazy eye and or something they call “Estropia”. I haven’t gone to a eye doctor about it but I’m pretty sure I have it. But the “lazy eye” I have only happens when I look up. It turns inward like a cross eye. But goes back to normal when I look forward. But if I try to look far away at something I can feel it Strain and go inward (cross eyed) again. I was wondering if a surgery could fix that?
