Squint Surgery in Islamabad — FAQs
At what age should squint be corrected?
As early as possible — before age 8 for best visual outcomes. Cosmetic surgery can be performed at any age.
Will my child need glasses after squint surgery?
Possibly. Surgery aligns the eyes but does not correct the underlying refractive error. Glasses may still be needed.
Can squint recur after surgery?
Yes — in 10–15% of cases. Adjustable suture technique minimises this. Revision surgery is possible if needed.
