Amblyopia in left eye

2017-08-16 06:53:13
My son's age is 3 years. He has a amblyopia problem. His right eye is perfect but in the left eye there is -3 number. Docter spoke to him for patching. I covered his right eye and used glasses. But he can not even look far away with glasses. I have been 4 days while patching. Is his treatment is correct??

This is the best way to treat. But do not expect miracles to happen. It will take time you have to be patient. You can ask your ophthalmologist about synaptophore for macular stimulation exercises.
