Can 6/6p be anisometropic amblyopia

Asked for Male, 20 Years

2 years back I had 6/6p in left eye and 6/6 in right, now I went for a checkup, the doctor diagnosed anisometropic amblyopia in left eye with 6/18 and 6/6 in right eye. I found on google that this condition starts not later than 11 years of age, in that case how can i get it at an age of 22 , as there was no diagnosis of amblyopia 2 years back . Please explain the same

Pls take second opinion and get your retina tested also. Based on your history, it is unlikely to develop amblyopia at this age. Or there are chances that first examination done 2 yrs back was not accurate.
