The following resources may help you find answers related to Amblyopia symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and research.

Definition: Amblyopia ("lazy eye"): a visual defect that affects approximately 2 or 3 out of every 100 children in the United States. Amblyopia involves lowered visual acuity (clarity of sight) in one eye which can not be corrected by glasses or contact lenses. The result is often a loss of stereoscopic vision (3D) and depth perception. Vision therapy can improve this condition. Early detection and treatment offer the best outcome.
