Lazy eye term suggests that it is not seeing well, or the other eye is seeing better or is fully normal. To bring back this eye to normalcy, it needs to be corrected by spectacles, followed by "occlusion" of the better eye, preferably for about 4 hours per day. This may be needed for about 6 months. Reversal depends on how much the eye is affected.
