And can it really be worse than it was after the surgery?

Surgical removal of strabismus is always performed under anesthesia - I do not know if this is a sufficient criterion to consider it an operation? Strabismus may recur after surgery, so when choosing a doctor who will operate, it is worth checking its "achievements" more carefully. I can recommend doctor Horodyńska from our Eye Microsurgery Center, but we only perform these surgeries for a fee.
