Patient's question:
Male, 7 years old, always can't see things clearly, everything looks like a mosaic when looking at people. After a vision check, it was said that there is a condition of mild strabismus. Question: How is it better to treat amblyopia in young children?Doctor's answer:
Strabismus and astigmatism are eye problems that are closely related to insufficient nutritional supply to the eyes. Generally, when the body lacks protein, the water in aqueous humor is not easily controlled by albumin, making it easier for intraocular pressure to fluctuate, which can lead to astigmatism. At the same time, due to the lack of protein, the production of rhodopsin and visual blue pigment in the eyes increases, resulting in decreased vision. When vitamin A (VA) is lacking, vision may also worsen. When calcium is deficient, the elasticity of the lens increases, enhancing the incidence of amblyopia.To treat strabismus and astigmatism, the first step is to supplement these nutrients, as this addresses the root of the problem. Additionally, you can take the (Nutrilite Bilberry Vision Health Softgels) orally, which has been proven effective for both conditions. The treatment for amblyopia is most effective before the age of 12, with the best results achieved before the age of 7.
