Good luck! I hope it goes well. Do you watch "The Middle?" Adam has strabismus!

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 Denzel Washington too

You're welcome!

Thank you for being here!

Good luck! The double vision slowed down for me after about 1-2 weeks.

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 Thank you!😊

Hi Nardia, how is your baby doing?

Thank you, you too! ❤️

I'm so glad it was helpful. Mine aren't perfect either, but it is getting better with vision therapy!

From what I can see your eyes look amazing 👌 perfect from the naked eye I guess, my problem is the vision in the eye is super weak compared to the other one eye the vision is perfect and the other it's horrible but atleast now it's straight and looking in the same direction

I'm so sorry! I struggle with ADHD too. It is definitely not easy, but you are not alone. For exotropia that straightens with glasses, you might have success with vision therapy. It's something to look into. Good luck!

what's ADHD?

Is it done under local anaesthesia or general anaesthesia

Have you double vision after surgery?

@@syedaaribhasan2493 general deep deep sleep

You will get used to it, but it can be so hard for those first few weeks! Try to relax and breath and just be curious about it instead of resisting. It will help your brain learn faster!

Good luck with the surgery! Make sure the surgeon leaves you slightly exo, not eso! Seeing 3D in real life is one of the more thrilling parts of life!

How did it go? I had my eye done at age 11,am now 34 and in need of another surgery!

@@doodle3762 It went pretty routine. The actual surgery went pretty fast. I woke up in recovery and was groggy for a bit. I had a bandage over my right eye at that point. Once I had cleared up a bit, the surgeon came out and took off my bandage and HOLY DOUBLE VISION! The surgeon had an assistant hold a small flashlight maybe about 8 feet away from me. She got ready, then had me follow the light and she was adjusting the suture on my right eye to get it straight. She did adjust both eyes, but the bulk of the change was in the right. Anyways, she put some goop in my eyes and sent me on my way. Then it was just a few days of rest and relaxation. I thought it was really weird that just an hour after having my eye operated on I was just sitting on the couch watching TV. There were a few times where my eyes felt a bit strained and a small bit of pain and I would just lay down with an ice pack on them. I never felt the need for even OTC pain medication. All told, the recovery was pretty easy. As for now, it's pretty awesome. Every once in a while my right eye wants to get lazy again (that's what it's done for 30+ years, so...), so I do my stretches and that will usually loosen it up. Seeing in 3D has been so cool! I remember the day after my surgery we went for a walk around the neighborhood and I was just amazed. I would find myself just staring at various things as I walked by them - plants, and even poles, whether they were power lines or street signs. Just seeing the separation in space was incredible. Here I am almost a year later and I still sometimes just sit and look at things and marvel at how much different everything looks. And I will reiterate again that vision therapy was a godsend. They were getting my eyes working together (as best they could back then...) before surgery, so once my eyes were both straight they just fell right in line. Surgery will get the eye straight, but it will possibly take more work beyond that to keep it straight. I don't think I would've needed another surgery if I had been in vision therapy after getting it fixed the first time.

That is today! good luck, I hope it all goes well!

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 hows did the surgery went?

how did it went?

@@andreiak4753 Hey! I got my surgery! And now, 15 days after, everything went super well..! My eyes are aligned, and I'm thrilled! My life changed a lot !! The post-op was easy; I only had to use eye drops every 4 hours, no screens for a few days, and no exercise for 30 days. The only thing that I had was conjunctivitis in the left eye; I have blur vision in that eye, but it is for that reason is improving now! Now, I need to go to therapy to learn how to see with both eyes all the time, which is totally new for me! hahaha PS: Not pain at all in this process!

@@emanuelc1025 what do you mean no exercise for 30days?what kind of strabismus do you have,do you still have to do vision therapy after?sad to say im in japan and they do not do vision therapy here

Just one as an adult, but three as a child. Vision therapy is what is making the biggest difference to fine tune the results!

I was afraid too, but it wasn’t as bad as I thought. ❤️❤️. If you want to talk, you can schedule a call at strabismussolutions.com/consult/

Can u tell me the pain u were experiencing??

How long did it take for you to feel comfortable driving?

I have the same surgery date !!! Good luck to you !

i have the same surgery date too!

@@1StarrHotel thank you! good luck to you as well! ❤️

@@lamamasri02 good luck! ❤️

Is this surgery for lazy eye?

Good luck, I hope your brain figures it out quickly so you can feel relief.

Good luck! I imagine it's so hard to watch your little one go through that!

How’s your baby now? My 1 year old had her surgery yesterday and her eye appears to be over corrected (doctor said it’s to be expected)

i just wanna thank parents like you who have your children get the surgery at a young age. so they don’t have to grow up and actually feel the pain when getting it done.

@@janaechristina My daughter looks amazing Thank God!..Her eyes were crossed for a few weeks but it straightened over the course of weeks, you cant even tell it ever looked outward. So def give it time it will straighten out. Hope she's okay!

@@ok-sg8tw Aww thank you, those were my exact thought and concerns, plus I dealt with the same thing growing and never had surgery and it traumatized me. I couldn't imagine her going through that ..thankfully I`ll be getting surgery myself soon.

You can feel the stitches, especially about one week after the surgery. They get very itchy. I just kept my eyes closed a lot and it wasn't too bad.

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 Just has it 4 days ago. Your video, I watched months ago, it helped me out a lot. Thank you. Having a hard time with my mind trying to understand what my eyes are trying to do.

How it went ?? Y wanna share a vid experience with us ?

@@metalmulishagaming2016 was it under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia

@@syedaaribhasan2493 General anesthesia.

The Doctor Convinced me to do both 👀 I suggested just 1 👁 now experiencing both going inward .J really bummed out I got work in 2 days and I'm a driver. Can they go back in and correct. Its been 11 days and I'm very concerned what will life be like now.

I'm so sorry, I know exactly how you feel. don't lose hope, it will get better. But it's okay to be sad about it. Good luck!

How is it now ?

I had a 2nd surgery on June 30. Much, much better. Doctor had to go into both eyes and work on muscles. They're still unstable and need to heal but 95% good. Thanking Jesus!

@@beckylawson27 have u done under general anaesthesia or local anaesthesia

My son just had his THIRD eye surgery and they look more crossed than before. I'm so upset.

It depends on the person. My eyes definitely are not perfectly white, but I don't know if they ever were. I don't pay that close of attention.

Have things gotten any better? I felt like my brain had adjusted pretty well within a few weeks...but I wasn't 100% for about 2-3 months.

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 now that I'm healed, it only worked 50%. My right eye still pulls outward if I drink alcohol or if I'm tired.

@@kelliputman3764 Are you able to keep them straight at all? Maybe Vision therapy could help?

I know that feels like a long time, but it does take the brain time to adjust to the new eye position. If the alignment isn't perfect, it can also make it more difficult. I wouldn't worry too much until it's been 5-6 weeks. At that point, if you are still having those symptoms I would meet with a developmental optometrist and do some vision therapy to help your brain learn to coordinate both eyes. I can help you find on at strabismussolutions.com/findvt/

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 I have one more question , after the surgery my eyes still don’t work together or looking at the same objects at the same time I still have to switch either of my eye to get to see things just wondering if you experienced any of these at all or maybe my surgery fail . I’m very concerned about it please give me some ideas or advice. Thank you so much

@@monayang9720 Surgery doesn't usually help the brain use both eyes together. It just makes them straight. Vision Therapy can help the eyes work together. It doesn't mean the surgery failed.

I'm sorry to hear that you still have double vision. I would definitely give it at least 3-6 weeks because the brain needs to adjust. At that point you can look into another surgery or vision therapy.

It took me about 2 weeks (1 week after sutures).

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 how does it feel driving 2 weeks after surgery?and what are you experiencing now?is it totally ok now?

@@andreiak4753 Driving felt a little unstable 2 weeks later, but I got used to it quickly. The main problem will be if you have double vision because it is usually worse in the distance which becomes more apparent while driving. I sometimes use glasses with prism while driving if I'm really tired and getting double vision.

Good luck!

Kaha pe surgery Kiya tha?

@@sameersarkar9646 not yet done it's on coming Monday..... It's in Virginia USA

It’s been 3 months now after surgery… surgery was successful… previously my eye used to turn 80 degrees now just 5 degrees which is almost perfect

@@Aravind-- Amazing!

As far as muscles go, I would think it would take about 3-4 weeks for your eyes to be at a point where they can make those quick movements necessary for sports, some people are much faster. Your brain may take longer to adjust and cope with double vision or visual confusion which could make sports very challenging. Have you considered doing vision therapy, it can really help the brain adjust before/after surgery. strabismussolutions.com/findvt/

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 how about getting back to work? I work with computers the whole time., how long am i supposed to be off work?...dont wanna rush about getting back and have a hard time if my eye is not ready yet. Im having surgery in one eye only in about two weeks.

@@user-zv1iq4fj6f I would try to go back part time at first, it can be really challenging to be on screens after surgery!

Yes, surgery can work for all kinds of strabismus.

.My question is that the surgery will be in a good eye? And after there will be no blurred in your eye?

My eyes were looking pretty scary for a week or two after the surgery, don't worry, things will settle down!

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 thank you. I’m also getting a lot of yellow on the white part of my eye, did you as well? And my eye seems to get dry and feels like someone is pulling the stitches or something

I got my surgery two weeks ago. No pain in the recovery process, everything went well and easy. Eye drops every 4 hours only, No screens for a few days and no excessive for a few weeks.

Nope, nothing with strabismus is permanent. It all depends on whether the brain accepts the eye position. It cost me $10,000 and my eyes do not hurt anymore.

I go do Dr. Peterson in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Yes, I just had mine done

Yep, you can have surgery at any age.

@@RodneyRammer can you tell me how the procedure went and what the results are this far? Best of luck to you!

I was sleeping and resting for 3-4 days, but I was still able to get up and shower and eat, I just wanted to be in the dark.

Before vision therapy is was 20/30, after it is now 20/25.

That is one opinion. What do you want? What are your goals? You can take his opinion into consideration, but it is just one opinion.

I want to do vision therapy. I’ve been reading with one eye covered and I bought tennis balls to try to catch. I spoke to a vision therapist that recommends I don’t do any exercises for 6 months after surgery and I don’t know if that’s right.

@@kelseys90u90 I started vision therapy about 4 weeks after surgery. It was extremely challenging for the first few weeks and it probably would have been better to wait until I was fully recovered at 6-8 weeks. That is great that you have met with a VT, but I'm not sure about that philosophy. Who was it?

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 honestly I can’t remember the business. My surgery was 2 weeks ago. I thought my eye was moving inwards again and I was scared. I guess I should just chill for a bit longer.

@@kelseys90u90 It is tricky with those first few weeks trying to get anxious about every little eye movement. If you want to pursue vision therapy I can help you get started at strabismussolutions.com/consult/

My vision was 20/25 before and after surgery.

@@strabismustostereopsis7799 if vision is poor the surgery it possible or not

@@manojkumardas7840 is still possible. The effect it has on your eyesight/ glasses is negligible

Done with ur surgery?? Is it done under local anaesthesia or general anaesthesia

@@syedaaribhasan2493 it was done by local anaesthetic. general anaesthesia is mostly needed in the cases of children, because they may not feel comfortable with the surgery and may disturb the surgeons while the surgery is being done. As I am 18 so there was no need for general anaesthesia.

Wow, I've never heard of that happening. I would look into vision therapy to see if you can fix the disconnect between your brain and eyes. If you go to strabismussolutions.com/findvt/ and fill out the form I can give you suggestions.

Hi, I wrote an article all about the recovery that could answer your questions. Check it out at lazyeyesolutions.com/what-is-recovery-from-strabismus-surgery-like-daily-details/

Vision therapy is amazing and it does work! For some people, even if the brain can learn to use the eyes together, they aren't able to keep the eyes straight because they've been it the wrong position for so long. For me, combining surgery with vision therapy was the perfect answer.

Yes I did
