Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I agree with the (pediatric) ophthalmologist. Your infant son's squint needs to be treated as soon as possible. Eyeglasses or eye patch are used for this problem in infants. If allowed to persist and not treated, his vision will suffer. Please have this checked again soon.
I hope I have helped you. Please return if you have additional questions.
