Answers:

Do you mean "lazy eye" or a "crossed eye"? There is a difference . Most people refer to a crossed eye as a lazy eye it is not. A crossed eye there are surgeries available. A lazy eye which I have there are eye excercises, but they are not very effective in adults it is most effective in childhood. Most doctors won't even do the excercises on adults believe me I've tried. The ones that I could find wanted to charge outrageously for the appts.



I, too, have that. I'm 58 years old. The only way to fix it is to have eye surgery. I noticed mine when I was in the 8th grade, also. I've lived with it for 44 years. Surgery is expensive. I'll have this problem for the rest of my life. I honestly hope and pray that you won't have to live with it the rest of your life. I wish you good luck in solving it.
