Can lasik surgery help crossed eye?

No, LASIK surgery cannot help crossed eyes (strabismus). LASIK surgery is a refractive surgery that corrects vision problems caused by refractive errors, such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism. It does not address muscle imbalances or structural problems that cause strabismus.

Strabismus is a condition where the eyes are not properly aligned and point in different directions. It can be caused by various factors, including muscle imbalances, nerve problems, or structural abnormalities in the eye muscles or the eye socket. Treatment for strabismus may involve eyeglasses, vision therapy, or eye muscle surgery, depending on the underlying cause and severity of the condition.
