Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) Therapy
Amblyopia is reduced vision in one eye caused not by the eye itself, but by the brain favoring the other. Modern therapy moves beyond patching, using dichoptic training to engage both eyes together.
Symptoms
- Reduced acuity in one eye
- Poor depth perception
- Squinting, head tilt, or eye closure
- Difficulty with 3D tasks or catching a ball
How therapy works
- Active binocular dichoptic training
- Tailored visual stimulation
- Optical correction as needed
- Progress tracked with objective measures
Outcomes
- Improved acuity in the amblyopic eye
- Functional binocular vision
- Enhanced depth perception
- Sustainable, long-term gains
Frequently asked
Is my child too old?
Modern research shows amblyopia responds to therapy well beyond age 7 — often into adulthood.
Will patching alone work?
Patching can help acuity but rarely builds binocular vision. We focus on both.
