TRAIN THE DEVELOPING VISUAL SYSTEM
Amblyopia treatment works best when started early
Amblyopia is reduced vision caused by abnormal visual development, often from unequal power, squint or visual obstruction. The eye may look normal, but the brain favours the clearer eye.
1. Finding the cause
Age-appropriate vision in each eye
Cycloplegic refraction for unequal or high power
Alignment and examination for cataract, drooping lid or retinal causes
2. The treatment sequence
Give a clear image
Accurate spectacles are usually the first step and may improve vision over time.
Encourage the weaker eye
Prescribed patching or penalisation reduces reliance on the stronger eye for a set period.
Measure response
Vision is rechecked regularly so treatment intensity can be adjusted and excessive patching avoided.
3. What parents need to know
Consistency matters
Daily treatment adherence affects the opportunity for improvement.
The plan is time-sensitive
Visual plasticity reduces with age, although older children may still benefit.
Stopping is supervised
Treatment is often reduced gradually because vision can regress.
4. Safety and expectations
- Never patch without professional guidance
- Improvement varies with cause, age and adherence
- Treating alignment alone does not automatically correct amblyopia
