Hello
It seems from the history that your daughter is having squint probably intermittent in nature as you have told it reduces on its own.
This requires evaluation to find out the underlying cause like refractive error or congenital cataract and correction of the same.
This has to be followed by squint surgery to align the eyes.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
