My 1.5 year baby has a little squint in her left eye. It is extremely intermittent and can be observed very few times. Someone told me that since my baby has been sleeping only in one direction since her birth, the squint developed and I should change her and mine sleeping side and that will really help. Is it true? what else can we do to make the condition better?
