I have pseudostrabismus. Is there any surgery to fix it? (Photo)

April 24, 2016
Asked By:helloitstara in Upland, CA

Hello, I just had an appointment with an ophthalmologist because I was told I might have strabismus, but unfortunately it's pseudostrabismus, and he says there's nothing he can do for that. They move perfectly as a team. My eyes look like they are looking outward about 10 degrees (his words). Any possibility to make it better?
