What are the treatments for amblyopia?

Patient's question:

Male, 26 years old, discovered that his eyesight was unclear and he had to look at things sideways. At first, he didn't take it seriously, thinking it was caused by playing computers too long. Please ask; what are the treatments for amblyopia?

Doctor's answer:

A small portion of children with amblyopia require corrective lenses to improve their vision, which can surpass the effects of amblyopia treatment. Another small portion of children undergo amblyopia treatment through the patching method, where the normal eye is covered, forcing the amblyopic eye to see, which can achieve a significant improvement in vision. Finally, during treatment, patients need to maintain a balanced diet, follow a regular schedule, actively participate in physical exercise, regulate their physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene to avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
