About Squint Eye Treatment

What is Squint Eye Treatment?

Squint eye, also known as Strabismus, is a condition in which the eyes are not properly aligned and point in different directions. One eye may look straight ahead while the other turns inward, outward, upward, or downward. Timely squint eye treatment is important to correct eye alignment, improve vision, and enhance appearance.

At Vasan Eye Care, we provide advanced and personalized squint treatment for children and adults, using modern diagnostic techniques and experienced surgical expertise.
