  Of course it is. Strabismus is an eye condition in which the eyes are not properly aligned. And it may cause eye fatigue, double vision, blurred images, reading difficulty or a loss of depth perception. Eye exercises will strengthen the muscles in the affected eye and treat the disorder of vision. Besides, you can also eat more vegetables and fruits which are rich in vitamin C, keep drinking a large amount of water to help clean your blood and develop good dietary habits as well as daily routines, especially getting rid of smoking.
