Please suggest how can we get a permament cure for her eye problem.

hi dear
hope to see you happy

if her squint is totally corrected with spectacles then 6 monthly checking for number is all that is required

but if there is residual squint she might have to undergo a squint surgery do consult a available squint surgeon

surgery earlier would be a lot better
good luck
