If he has 6/6 vision that means he has alternate divergent squint which can be corrected with surgery. All the best.

Squint is of different types. In a small proportion of patients, it gets corrected with glasses and exercise. But most adult patients require surgery for correction. The cost again depends upin the amount of squint.

If squint disappear with glasses, not to worry. If eyes remail sqinting, must go for surgery to avoid permanent one eye vision week. 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.

I think you underwent decompression for thyroid exophthalmos, if you vision is equally good in both eyes there is no need to worry.
Some apparent squint will be resolved with time as limitation of movement is over with resolution of orbital oedema.
Donot worry much and keep in touch with your operating surgeon.
How long it had been since you got the operation.
I think you should Waite for 6 month before planning reoperation.

Your squint needs to be evaluated by an eye specialist. The cost will depend on the degree of squint & the no. Of muscles to be operated. Success rate again depends on your vision before surgery. Squint may reappear if you were amblyopic. The cost of myopia surgery depends on the type of surgery you are undergoing.
LASIK, being the most common, may cost you between 18000/- to 90000/-(Both Eyes, depending upon the type of LASIK undergone.
