Hi,
There is no problem in my vision. But my left eye is little bit squint. It came by birth. But as now am a grown up guy n workin in a software company, I suffer from inferiority complex beautywise. Can anyone suggest any way I could correct my squint eyes? (Surgery not Preferred).

Wear dark glasses. It can be a good idea to solve these problems with a doc, you, or rather your parents should have done it when you were a baby. Now its too late if you have amblyopia (lazy eye).

Sometimes it's cute to have a little squint. Have you looked at Denzel Washington lately. His best feature is his eyes and they have a little squint.

If the eyes are mis-aligned as an adult, with one turning on or out, the only real treatment is surgical and even that doesn't come with a permanent fix assured. Over years, the eye that is not locked into aligment by vison (the lazy eye, if there is one) can slowly wander.
*IF* there is uncorrected longsight *AND* the eyes turn in, spectacles can produce straighter looking eyes (and more comfortable vision).
If there is no binocular vision, there are cosmetic optical tricks that can be done with glasses, using "reverse prisms" but this only works while the glasses are being worn, and can need relatively thick lenses.

when patients use the word "squint", they are usually talking about PTOSIS or one eyelid that droops.
when docs say "squint" they mean one misaligned EYE. i never use the word "squint" for this reason...b/c it confuses patients. i consider "squint" to be a lay term.
if you have a droopy eyelid...thats a minor surgical procedure to fix. there are "ptosis crutch" glasses that have a small bar to lift the eyelid, but they're rare.
if you have one eye that points the wrong way, a better term IMO is "strabismus". that would be fixed by a more invasive surgical procedure and possibly by glasses with prism in them

It has something to do with permutations and combinations and the number 12. I give up, what's the answer?
