thanks a lot Doctor for advice, i am in search of best strabismus Surgeon in Pakistan , as Doctor advised me that my left eye squint is huge so it cannot be fixed with glasses.
Recently i visited a eye surgeon at a well known Hospital in karachi, he suggested for strabismus surgery in both eyes , he also said that it cannot be fixed with a single surgey u need to have a second surgery after few month of first surgery.

See a strabismus surgeon.  Divergent strabismus can be fixed and it is your best option.  You can also get glasses with prisms.
