Patient's question:
A girl is 12 years old this year. She has been running back and forth to the hospital many times, but the results are always not obvious, and she has been getting sick all the time. Please ask: What is a simple, easy-to-implement, and effective method for treating amblyopia?Doctor's answer:
Strabismic amblyopia often occurs in children due to abnormal visual experience, which leads to vision loss. It can be classified into strabismic amblyopia, organic amblyopia, and amblyopic eye. Treatment methods include medication and surgery. Personally, I believe that surgical treatment is the simplest and most effective method. Medication treatment, in addition to implementing training therapies such as occlusion therapy and afterimage therapy, is slow-paced, and the treatment is most effective between the ages of 5 and 6. By the age of 8, the therapeutic effect is not ideal. It is recommended to start treatment as soon as possible.
