I'm not sure exactly what eye is the problem or if it's sometimes one or the other. I feel that my lazy eye is hindering my eye vision . Despite being told I have bad vision previously by the nurses I've never came around to getting them. I wouldn't mind wearing glasses , in fact I've been wanting to get them a long time ago so that I can see better. But my main concern is the lazy eye , is there anything I can do to fix this ? Please help.

Your photos indicate that you may have mild lower eyelid retraction [white showing underneath your cornea-"scleral show"].Strabismus alludes to misalignment of the eyes, or "crossed eyes", which your photos don't show.
Strabismus or "crossed eyes" is a recognized complication following blepharoplasty. The cause can be either due to postop swelling in which case the strabismus will resolve as the edema dissipates or it can be due to direct injury to one of the extraocular eye muscles that control eye...
Your eyelid surgery is reconstructive in nature. Work with your oculoplastic surgeon to determine the best timing for you. Sounds like you have had an intense run of procedures to decompress and slow your graves disease. Good Luck,Dr Shifrin
