My daughter is 3 years old. During her kindergarten physical examination, it was found that she has astigmatism in her eyes. What should I do?

Patient's question:

Female 3 years Astigmatism in eyes

Doctor's answer:

Principles of Amblyopia Treatment:
1. Correct refractive errors;
2. For central fixators: occlusion therapy, visual stimulation therapy, and penalization therapy to improve vision;
3. For eccentric fixators: afterimage therapy, red filter or red flash therapy, Hering's brush, and recovery of foveal central fixation;
4. Homonymous hemianopia training.
Principles of Medication Use:
1. There is no specific medication for amblyopia.
2. 1% atropine ointment or solution is mainly used in penalization therapy. The sound eye is treated with 1% atropine to blur vision, forcing the patient to use the amblyopic eye, which facilitates training and improves the vision of the amblyopic eye.
