    Management of Amblyopia (Lazy Eye)

    Helping Children See Clearly. Expert Care for Lazy Eye

    What is Amblyopia?

    Amblyopia, commonly known as lazy eye, is a childhood vision disorder where one eye doesn’t develop normal visual acuity. This condition usually begins in infancy or early childhood and can lead to permanent vision loss if not treated in time.
    The brain starts favoring one eye over the other, which results in the weaker eye becoming “lazy.” Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial because children’s visual systems are still developing and respond better to corrective care at a younger age.

    Effective Amblyopia Treatment Options in Bangalore

    At our pediatric eye care center in Bangalore, we offer comprehensive treatment for Amblyopia, customized to your child’s needs:

    1 . Prescription Glasses

    Correct refractive errors (nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism) that cause the eyes to focus unevenly.

    2. Patching Therapy

    The stronger eye is covered with a patch to encourage the weaker eye to work harder and improve.

    3. Atropine Eye Drops

    Used as an alternative to patching in some cases, these drops blur the vision in the stronger eye to promote use of the weaker eye.

    4. Vision Therapy

    Structured exercises and games designed to improve eye coordination, focus, and visual processing skills.

    5. Follow-up and Monitoring

    Regular visits ensure your child’s eyes respond well to treatment and vision improves steadily.
