Answers:
no!.

edit: jelly & jimmy!.!.!.the poster/asker is not talking about "squinting" like nearsighted people "squint" or slightly close their eyes to help them see better (pinhole effect)!. he's referring to STRABISMUS:

which in Europe and especially England is also called a "squint"!. i suspect the poster/asker is from England!. gotta be!.

its for this reason and this confusion that MOST medical professionals stopped using the word "squint"!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

My eyes do squint and I need glasses but I get called names with them so ,I'd wear contacts if you can you don't want to look like a fish with squinting eyesWww@Answer-Health@Com

yes without glasses/contacts, your eyes will look smaller as you tend to squint to see thingsWww@Answer-Health@Com
