Life After Strabismus
Real experiences and practical guidance for adults navigating strabismus surgery. From someone who's been through it.
Why I Created This Site
When I was preparing for my strabismus surgery as an adult, I found it incredibly hard to find real, personal experiences online. Medical websites gave clinical information, but I wanted to know: What was it really like?
How much did it hurt? How long until I could work again? Would people notice? Would it even work?
After going through the surgery myself, I decided to document everything. The good, the scary, the recovery, and the transformation. This site is what I wish I'd found when I was searching.
