it could be that it is blind but most likely the muscles it that eye are not very strong and they are hoping that the glassses might correct it
.............Having crossed eyes can often be attributed to an impact injury to your head at sometime in your live
......Only an eye test can reveal how much her eyes are affected
.......An minor operation will fix it with only a minimal time spent in hospital so there is really no excuse to make a young child the jibes and name calling that this entails in children.
....It's a shame she has been left so long with this defect.

She probably isn't blind, but because of the eye turn, her brain may be choosing to 'ignore' the vision signals from that eye and is 'choosing' to use the signals from the right eye. With patching/surgery, she may be able to have better functional use of that eye.
She's not blind, and if she is, it's not related to her being cross eyed. Being cross eyed is a condition where your eye's "moving muscle" is contracting on either side, pulling the eye ball to one side.
Not in the least. My mother was cross-eyed as a child and had surgery to correct it. Aside from needing glasses, her vision is fine. It's better than mine, even.
