Amblyopia (Lazy Eye)

What is Amblyopia?

Amblyopia, without a known disease in the eye and visual pathways, is the result of visual impairment and / or abnormal interaction between both eyes, mostly in one eye and rarely in both eyes.

Amblyopia Treatment

Early diagnosis of amblyopia affects the success of the treatment positively. If glasses are needed, glasses are given and the well-seeing eye is closed at certain times and the lazy eye is trained. Surgery has no place in the treatment of amblyopia. In the visual therapy centers we have chosen, patients are also treated with eye exercises called orthoptic applications.

The basic treatment of amblyopia is to close the well-seeing eye by wearing the appropriate glasses and forcing the lazy eye to see. Vitamins taken do not directly affect the treatment.
