Hi , patching should hav done in early age but I it’s worth a try.You need to go to a good eye surgeon who specializes in these kind of surgeries and you should discuss the results in detail.I know these surgeries are done in Maghrabi eye hospital in Jeddah Saudi Arabia.Now visas are simplified for Saudi Arabia you can go ther and visit ther Eye hospital. I am confident that they can help you. Best of luck

You can try patching if advised, if there is no improvement after a few weeks of month then you can leave it. then surgical correction of squint is recommended.
