Hello im 24 years old nd suffering from amblopia. My left eye is weak nd turns outward. N my i am using clynderical number 0f 3.5 at 180 axis. I started patching but couldn't continue due to go for university. I met with 2 doctrs 1 of them said patching at this ahe is not valuable nd 2nd 1 said it only way. I want to oprate my eye to correct deviation but they say ur eye moves again outward after some time period. Is it true? R any other way to treat tbis problem at age of 24. Is there any 1 offer vision therapy and exercise? Thankyou
patching therapy can be tried.if done properly and regularly, it can give good results.there are 2 different theories about patching at this age, one says tht its beneficial and other says its not..but 1 proper try should be given. surgery at this stage will not help you. there are chances of re deviation. before patching, retinal examination is must
Hi , patching should hav done in early age but I it’s worth a try.You need to go to a good eye surgeon who specializes in these kind of surgeries and you should discuss the results in detail.I know these surgeries are done in Maghrabi eye hospital in Jeddah Saudi Arabia.Now visas are simplified for Saudi Arabia you can go ther and visit ther Eye hospital. I am confident that they can help you. Best of luck
You can try patching if advised, if there is no improvement after a few weeks of month then you can leave it. then surgical correction of squint is recommended.
Needs to be evaluated properly. Please visit
Without patching there's no benefit .. you have to take the leap
