Adult amblyopia, or lazy eye, was once thought to be untreatable after childhood, but recent advancements are changing this perspective. New
adult amblyopia treatment are now available to help adults improve vision in the affected eye. Methods such as visual therapy exercises, eye patching, and the use of dichoptic therapy (which involves playing games or viewing images that stimulate both eyes) have shown positive results. Additionally, some patients benefit from treatments involving specialized lenses or neurostimulation. While treatment success varies, these options provide hope for improving visual acuity and depth perception in adults with amblyopia. Consult an eye care professional for personalized recommendations.
