Strabismus correction surgery has limitations (possible loss of eye mobility, some deviations are harder to correct surgically, etc) and is unsuccessful in about 1/4 - 1/5 of patients, which is a lot IMO, and on top of that relapse can occur, but that's for patients who had it congenitally, idk what the stats might be when correcting a surgery induced issue, but it's probably similar.No niggers its just a strabismus literally all they have to do is tighten his eye muscle and it will be back to normal with some excercise.
We're also not talking about the added risks of undergoing even more ocular surgery, y'all know undergoing surgery is always risky to some degree and it's best to avoid it if possible (that's why people with mild strabismus are prescribed glasses instead of surgery).
Strabismus causes double vision in adults, in kids the brain often learns to ignore one of the eye's images, so one eye becomes useless and they only see through the other eye (no double vision), but when the onset is in adulthood the brain can no longer adapt and they're bound to see double.It doesn't even affect someone vision. Niggas are making big scene here for no reasons.
It really is no joke.
We have to wait and see what ends up happening, strabismus is a common complication of OBO (well, of the one used for hypertelorism, I haven't found complication rates for the technique used here***) so bro was for sure well aware that it could happen and was prepared to accept the risk, therefore, I guess we can't call the surgery a fail, even though I'm sure bro will be very disappointed if the issue isn't resolved and there's a high chance he'll regret getting the surgery if that's the case.So his surgery is a fail overall?
I read a while ago that for some patients the issue resolves on its own, but for others the issue persists and requires revision surgery (once or multiple times). It's already been a few months since he had the surgery so unless his vision improved, he might need surgery, but we'll see, maybe the strabismus correction is successful even if surgery in needed, so then it's all good. In theory the odds of fixing the problem are higher than the odds of it persisting.
***I don't know the complication rate of the technique used here (it's prolly the same as for hypertelorism OBO, but it could be more or less), since moving the eyes apart is very rare and literature is very sparse. I did a quick search and couldn't find much, perhaps it could be found with an in depth search but I'm not completely sure.
