What Is Myopia (Nearsightedness)?
Myopia is a common refractive error of the eye that makes it difficult to focus on far away objects.

It is not an eye operation and nothing to do with vision loss in surgery. It is an external surgery and quite safe. You must get op. At the age 5 to 6.If done late ,vision will be less in one eye for ever.

You have not mentioned the duration of having the exotropia. Plan of surgery and whether surgery required or not depends upon many factors. U should consult an ophthalmologist for detailed Ophthalmic evaluation and squint workup. Based on that only further plan of management can be decided. Hope you find it useful.
