A blind eye is like a boat without a rudder. It won't stay on course. In an adult it usually drifts OUT over a period of years.

what if vision in both eyes is the same and one eye turns in and both eyes are operated on to straighten them a bit would that eye eventualy turn out also?

No one eye is always going to be straight.
