What should be done about mild amblyopia with myopic astigmatism in children?

Patient's question:

What should be done about mild amblyopia with myopic astigmatism in children? The child has had this condition for a long time, and I am very worried about it becoming worse. Please give some advice to the doctor.

Doctor's answer:

Eat more animal livers and vegetables regularly, maintain a balanced diet, reduce eye fatigue. Before the child turns 11, both amblyopia and astigmatism can be treated. It's better to consult a hospital. Glasses are necessary, but they must be suitable. A special treatment using infrared stimulation for the eyes is effective for children, but persistence is required, otherwise it will take longer. The older you get, the harder it is to treat. It is also recommended to pay more attention to rest and eat more fruits and vegetables daily.
