Nothing in medicine and surgery can be guaranteed. No surgeon can promise or guarantee a perfect result. No surgeon, no matter how skilled, gets 100% success.  Moreover eye muscle surgery (strabismus surgery or squint surgery) is very prone to under- and over- corrections. Second or even third operations are not uncommon.  Other complications like infection, bleeding, double vision, damage to vision could occur. You should clarify this with the surgeon. I believe you misunderstood what he/she said. If in fact the surgeon is offering a 100% success rate or guarantee, then I would consult with another strabismus surgeon.

after check up he said u have problem with your three muslces in both the eyes
two muscles in left eye and one muscle in right eye and i have taken the surgery date also with the doctor, at the time of taking surgery date i ask the doctor is there any risk for the vision in this surgery doctor said there is no risk to vision it is nothing to do with your vision some time it will not be rectified 100% you need to go another surgery but he did not inform me aboput the complications about infection bleeding  vision loos, now doctor what is your opinion should i get it done the surgery, is there any risk to vision we loose both the eyes vision or one eye vision or any other treatment is there to rectify squint problem other than the surgery
