Squint, or strabismus, is a condition where the eyes are misaligned and do not look at the same object simultaneously, with one eye turning in, out, up, or down.
Squint refers to partly closing the eyes to see more clearly (often in bright light) or a medical condition (strabismus) where eyes are misaligned and look in different directions. It can also mean to look obliquely or, informally, to take a quick glance.
Homeopathy approaches squint (strabismus) by focusing on strengthening the weakened eye muscles and addressing the underlying causes, such as refractive errors, nerve weakness, or stress. It is particularly effective for mild to moderate cases, providing a non-surgical option that aims to correct eye alignment and improve vision naturally without side effects.
