Understand the procedure

What is squint correction (strabismus surgery)?

Squint surgery changes the position or action of muscles that move the eyes to improve alignment. The goals may include alignment or reducing double vision. It does not automatically correct poor vision from a lazy eye.

This is general procedure information. Your chosen doctor assesses what applies to you.

Procedure information: NHS: patient information

Understand the proposed plan

What the operation may involve

Which muscles are treated

One or more muscles in one or both eyes may be adjusted. The plan follows detailed alignment measurements.

Expected result

The effect on appearance, double vision and binocular function depends on the underlying eye problem.

Further care

Glasses, exercises or another operation may still be needed. Children may also require separate treatment for reduced vision.

Your decision, your questions

Questions for your chosen doctor

Choose the questions that matter to your situation. We record them in your own words and take them to the consultation.

Your existing case file

Records to organise

We organise the orthoptic measurements and eye examination reports alongside your treatment history and the written procedure recommendation. We note what you want the strabismus specialist to clarify and keep the original reports available for the consultation.

Share the records you already have. This is a document checklist, not a request for new tests.

Bring together what is available

  • Orthoptic measurements and eye examination reports
  • Visual-acuity records and glasses prescription
  • Previous squint surgery, patching or other treatment records
  • History of double vision, its onset and relevant neurological assessments
  • Your written procedure recommendation, current prescriptions and allergy details

When you cannot attend yourself

How Redwood takes your case to your doctor

  2. Prepare the case with us. We organise your existing records, treatment timeline and questions, then coordinate the appointment.

After the consultation, we share the doctor's recommendations and consultation documents with you.

A video call during the consultation can be arranged if the doctor allows.
