Eyes of my kid not aligned properly

[Santos82]

Hello,

Would ask if anyone know the case where the kids have the eyes not aligned properly.

This is the case of my son. He is 8 months now.

I researched on the internet and learned that it is normal for babies below 6 months.

Anyone know if it is still normal.

I would get it checked. He may have a squint or a lazy eye. These are worse case scenarios but I would get it looked at xx

No idea, sorry - just wanted to say your son has beautiful eyes xxx

My daughter has a squint told it should be clearer by 6 months + but my daughter’s hasn’t corrected and waiting in surgery to try and correct it x

How old is she

My daughter is 2 1/2 so we’ve been battling with this since birth . But it’ll be corrective eye surgery when it’s safe to do so from covid 19 x

Surgery is our very last resort as patching hasn’t worked . Your medical professional will mostly say to try patches first before it gets to surgery. They don’t like to do surgery in my area unless it’s for the last resort

And what type of surgery

I’m not sure what they will do surgery wise. Until my daughters had her appointment.
