Photo-refractive errors in the eye
Name(s):
Amblyopia
Lazy eye
Incidence
5% of all children are born with some sort of refractive error in one or both eyes. If one eye cannot form sharp images, the brain will tend to ignore it. Unless this amblyopia is diagnosed at an early age, the full use of the 'lazy eye' can be irretrievably lost. Early diagnosis is most is difficult in relatively mild cases and where only one eye is affected.
