Strabismus surgery is a medical procedure that treats eye misalignment caused by weakened or abnormal eye muscles. However, there are several synonyms for this term depending on the type or severity of the condition. A few examples of these synonyms include ocular muscle surgery, squint correction surgery, eye muscle surgery, and rectus muscle surgery. In addition, there are specialized procedures for specific misalignments such as horizontal strabismus surgery or vertical strabismus surgery. Whatever the synonym may be, the ultimate goal of strabismus surgery is to improve eye function, reduce eye strain, and enhance visual acuity.
