Patient's question:
Male, 5 years old, the child's vision has deteriorated significantly. I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination, and it was diagnosed as strabismus with amblyopia. I am very worried about this situation. I want to ask if amblyopia can be surgically treated.Doctor's answer:
Children with corrected vision higher than 0.8 can be diagnosed with amblyopia if other eye diseases are ruled out. It is too late to discover amblyopia at the age of 10. Follow the doctor's advice to get glasses and persist in amblyopia treatment to prevent complications. Please refer to our website's for more information. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to go to formal Grade A hospitals for systematic and standardized examinations as soon as possible according to their own conditions to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain regular routines, take precautions against cold, eat light and soft foods, keep the room well-ventilated, and drink plenty of hot water.
