Orbital eye decompression for non thyroid?

hiind
i've been researching that surgery for more than a year, i don't have thyroid , my eyes are bulgy ,not symmetric and i have squint also .i don't know if i have one eye prominent than the other or it's lower ; i consulted a local surgeon ,he told me this operation will cause more squint and i won't be able to see clearly;i consulted squint doctor, many doctors told me i can't have operation for squint coz it's just appearance ,one doctor told me my squint can be repaired only after eye decompression
