Is it true that if you stay cross eyed, your eyes will stick like that forever?

Question

Im sure we have all heard that this will happen from our parents or if we make funny faces, it will stick also. I am wondering if this has any merit? Is this true or not?

Answer 1

It's a myth.

:D

Answer 2

Nope!  In fact, my daughter goes cross-eyed because she's farsighted and needs to cross her eyes to focus.  She wears glasses to correct it, and when she wears her glasses, her eyes are straight.  So even though she crosses her eyes whenever her glasses aren't on, as soon as she puts on her glasses, they straighten out.

Answer 3
