I have been diagnosed with amblyopia and suggested patching for 2 3 hours a day. I have 6/6 vision in right eye and 6/18 in left eye.will patching help in this age(25). I have read for amblyopia, the treatment in childhood is effective...I was diagnosed in the age of 16..I'm doing patching also... work in IT sector job..so ind it difficult to take out hours for patching... do it after work or before leaving for work. see floaters ..afterimages in vision. ..specially at night..and in bright lights... have light sensitivity also. I get headache and migraine issues due to this. Eye fatigue and sleepiness also. When I see the screen I get eye strain also. I'm very stressed due to this.

Patching might give a very little improvement only because brain has been adapted to that left eye by now. Dry eyes can be a reason for tiredness of eyes.
