You could be having Amblyopia (lazy eye) in Right eye. At grown up age it is usually not possible to improve vision in that eye by any means. Such eyes can be treated upto 8 years of age. You should accept vision as it is and move on in life. You may get your squint cosmetically corrected by surgery.

Minor alternative squint may not need any surgery. Get a complete eye evaluation by an ophthalmologist or eye surgeon and go by that advice.

Post a successful squint surgery, the eye maintains an orthophoric position that is a primary position with no deviation. Unless there are any late post operative complications, it generally maintains it's primary position.

If your vision is good in both eyes and sufficient for your job, esp if your CV is good, presence of squint by itself may not be a hindrance in getting a job. However, some hirers like governments or defence services may have rigid exclusion criteria which you may check with them in advance.

Squint is not a reason for rejection in medical test. It depends on for what purpose you are going. Your visa agent or job consultant can guide you. If in doubt, consult an ophthalmologist (eye surgeon) again.
