Patient's question:
Male, 6 years old, my child always says he can't see the blackboard clearly, and he says he sees double when looking at things. Later, it was found that he has mild strabismus. Can congenital mild amblyopia be improved with treatment?Doctor's answer:
Congenital amblyopia has a good therapeutic effect before the age of 12. Wearing appropriate glasses and patching the eye are both essential. Auxiliary amblyopia treatment devices and fine motor skill training should first be checked at an ophthalmology department of a hospital to confirm the diagnosis. Treatment should be based on the cause and symptoms. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients need to go to a standard Grade III-A hospital for systematic and standardized examinations as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against colds, eat light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
