strabismic

Having crossed eyes

Strabismic describes eyes or vision affected by strabismus—a condition where the eyes don't align properly, with one or both turning inward, outward, up, or down.

The term appears in medical contexts and occasionally in literary description: his strabismic gaze made it hard to tell what he was looking at.
