Amblyopia (also called lazy eye)
*A type of poor vision that happens in just 1 eye.
* Amblyopia occurs in early childhood.
*It develops when there's a breakdown in how the brain and the eye work together, and the brain can't recognize the sight from 1 eye.
* Decreased eyesight due to abnormal visual development.
* When nerve pathways between the brain and an eye aren't properly stimulated, the brain favours the other eye.
* Symptoms include a wandering eye, eyes that may not appear to work together or poor depth perception. Gradually Both eyes may be affected.
* Treatment includes eye patches, drops, glasses or contact lenses and sometimes surgery.
* Condition is correctable when treated on time .

Eye care tips for the summers ….

As the heat increases … eye irritation increases.. leading to eye problems like Dry eyes, Infections & Allergic conditions ..

Here are a few tips to help in eye care..

• Always wear Goggles / Sunglasses: Wear Sunglasses outdoors, particularly those with wrap around frame design, to reduce exposure to drying winds, sunrays, breeze, dust and pollution.

• Remember to blink and look at a distance – Remember to blink regularly and look at far off distances every 20-30 minutes of working on the computer or while reading a book .

• Keep AC vent down – whether it is in an office , cars or at home , keep the Ac vent down and not right on the face , the cold air can dry out the moisture in the eyes.

• Drink plenty of water – Avoid becoming dehydrated by drinking plenty of water (8-10 glasses) each day.

• Keep a cold towel over your eyes – this keeps the eyes cool, fresh and clean .. Do not splash water over your eyes.

Get your eyes tested regularly..
