Is lasic surgery a possible cure for Amniopia? What are some other ways of correcting this "lazy eye" disease?

Best Answer:

By the way, the condition is actually called Amblyopia. The most common treatment for amblyopia is to force the brain to start using the "bad" eye by putting a patch over the "good" eye. In cases of mild amblyopia, the doctor might recommend using an eye drop called atropine in the "good" eye instead of a patch.If there is something blocking light from getting into the eye, the doctor might recommend surgery to remove the blockage. If strabismus is preventing the eyes from moving together correctly, your doctor might recommend surgery on the muscles of the eye. And if the focus of one eye is very different from the other, eyeglasses or contact lenses might be necessary.
