Lazy Right Eye Since Birth, Wants To Correct It. Non-surgical Treatment And Cost?

I am 28, and I have a lazy right eye. I ve had it since birth (1984). I would like to correct it now since I am of some age and that medicine has changed from the early 80 s till now. I know about the eye correction treatments without surgeries, but I couldn t find to much information on the surgeries itself. What do you suggest? Am I too old to get repaired? What s the cost?
