Here is our story. My husband had strabismus surgery 15 weeks ago. He has
had severe eye, frontal head, neck, and back pain. He had this surgery 2
times as a child. He cannot drive, look at the computer, and has not
returned to work since the surgery. The surgeon suggests that an over
correction may have occured. Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone
had any suggestions?

Does covering 1 eye, so only 1 eye is used, relieve all or most of the
symptoms? If so, the alignment sounds like the problem. If this does not
help, the problem is likely elsewehere, since using one eye does not involve
alignment of the eyes.

And, no, I have never seen such a severe problem that lasted so long.
Especially back pain - that is a puzzle.

I'll share more information. The surgeon believes his eyes went in the
opposite directions after the surgery. He's had an MRI, and every possible
blood test. We are now going to go to an eye pain specialist, and see what
an pain clinic can do for him.
