I used to have the same problem and before I has my operation the optometrist or the eye doctor had me perform some ways to exercise the lazy eye some exercises to get my eyes in focus. One of these was to put a patch over the good eye to strengthen the weak eye .

It will strengthen his weak eye and he may be lucky that he might not need an operation. All the same, he should see the eye doctor. There are other exercises where you see an image on one side, and another image on the other side and you join them together. It is something like 3D glasses where one side was red and the other green, only instead of the red and green you have two different images. I do not know what it is called, but it helps one focus.
