Squint is an eye condition that causes the eyes to be out of alignment. The eye muscles that control the movement of the eyeball, eyelids, and eyebrows become weak, which results in squinting. Six ocular muscles actually control how our eyes move, allowing them to move up, down, left to right, and in circles. Strabismus, another name for squint, can be treated with eyeglasses, medicine, or surgery. However, an ophthalmologist very infrequently advises surgery. Many things can make you squint.
