Procedure of Squint Surgery at Eye Care in India

Squint surgery is a highly preferred treatment offering a stable eye condition with right alignment. The procedure involves the adjustment of eye muscles that control eye movement to realign the eyes. It is performed under local anesthesia with a small incision to access the eye muscles. Thus, the surgeon adjusts and repositions the muscle to realign the eyes. The muscles of the eyes are weakened or strengthened as required for eye alignment. Then the incision is closed by the surgeon and sutured with a dissolving thread. Thus, the procedure promotes quicker healing and minimal scarring. The surgical procedure is less invasive, so patients can resume normal activities in a few days. Find the illustrative video guide about squint surgery below.
