Implications of Squint

There have been various studies which have studied the social implications of squint. Squint is not only a functional impairment due to loss of binocularity but also a cosmetic blemish. The person with squint is less likely to land a job at an interview, less likely to be promoted as he is considered inept or disabled. However good you are if you have squint, you are less likely to get recognition as compared to your peers. 

It is difficult for the person in front to make eye contact with you and hence interactions are less likely and therefore opportunities get limited.

Squint surgery is very successful and alignment is perfect in most cases. Patients are very happy with the outcomes of surgery and it is always a life changing experience.
