Answers:
I have been through it twice!. I had surgery when I was four and five years old!. I also went through patching, eyeglasses, and vision therapy!. I can say that my eyes are better than they were when when I started treatment, but they still have some issues working together!. I think the most successful of the treatments was the vision therapy!.

I also have uneven vision!. My right eye has normal vision and my left eye has moderate astigmatism!. I suggest that you monitor your daughter's vision in both eyes because uneven vision and sometimes amblyopia can be common with strabismus because a person with strabismus may only use one eye to avoid double vision!. I mostly used my right eye and I believe my left eye is weaker because of that!.

The only time the muscle issues are noticeable for me is when I am really tired or I do not wear my contact lens/eyeglasses when doing activities that require good distance vision!.

Good luck with your daughter!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
