Hello
It seems from the history that your son was diagnosed with squint esotropia and he was prescribed glasses.
It seems like he is probably having accommodative esotropia and treatment for it is by use of spectacles which overcome the excessive accommodation which may be the cause for it.
If it is not getting corrected by spectacles alone, the treatment is by corrective surgery.

Thank you
