I am 32 yrs. old male. I have a lazy eye and exotropia. I just start wearing eyeglasses for a month. With the eyeglasses my eyes are straight. When i take off my eyeglasses my eyes wander. How long would it take eyeglasses to correct exotropia. When i should get surgery.
If you are "over-minused" to stimulate convergence this is not a good idea for an adult especially at your age because convergence weakens dramatically this decade of life.
Your best bet is to see a strabismus-pediatric ophthalmologist for an evaluation of your condition. Find one near you at www.aao.org
