Also, if the lazy eye is not detected or treated at an early age, it may lead to loss of vision and depth perception. One should take the child for Amblyopia therapy once the symptoms are detected as early detection and treatment gives best results.

During amblyopia, the process of loss of vision begins in the brain. The symptoms are characterized by clear vision in one eye, whereas blur in the other. The brain can also suppress one eye so as to avoid double vision. This process of suppression can even result in permanent decrease in the vision which cannot be treated with the help of glasses, contact lenses or surgery.

Amblyopia might be inherited but at a very young age it isn’t easily recognizable. A young child is unable to make out that their eyes are blurred and neither the parents notice that their children have amblyopic eye until they grow up.

The examination and correction of the lazy eye at an early age is very important and the Amblyopia therapy is most effective below four years old. The treatment of amblyopia involves drops, glasses, vision therapy or patching.

Patching is another way to treat the lazy eye as it is helpful in stimulating the brain in order to use both the eyes together. It is an effective ambylopia therapy wherein the patient is required to wear the eye patch on the amblyopic eye for a certain period. This can be worn for two to three hours a day for 3 months to a year. While wearing, the patients are needed to follow some eye exercises. This forces the weak eye to work.

In certain cases, eye surgery is recommended that involves the stretching and cutting of the eye muscles to fix the eye. But, it isn’t much effective since the habit of the brain to work both the eyes together is not corrected and thus there is still some misalignment of the weak eye.
