"If it looks like a , and quacks like a , we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands." - Douglas Adams (English Writer) 1952-2001

I'm a grumpy old man at heart.
I wasn't! Odeon is younger than I thought he was.I think I was 18 months old when I first had surgery. I think they were hoping to fix it early so I didn't develop amblyopia - which I did anyway.
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

I think it is quite common for strabismus surgery to be done very early these days. The earlier the better I think, so that the child does not permanently lose three dimensional vision.
My right eye is the bad one. I can read and watch TV with it, but like you I have difficulty tracking correctly. It's a pain but it's usable.I wore patches several times, for the same reasons as you. I think the first was before my first surgery. I got my first glasses when I was 3, probably because while I knew how to read I couldn't focus on anything close to me.

My left eye is the weaker one. Now I feel so left out.
