Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I am Dr. DADAPEER K, an Ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that your son is having myopia and he has also undergone squint surgery.
Myopia will increase till he reaches the age of 18-20. As of now it is not possible to reduce the minus number. But once the refractive power is stabilized refractive laser surgeries like lasik can reduce the minus number. As of now he needs to wear the spectacles for correction.

Hope the information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
I find this answer helpful
