As we all know, the level of vision has a great impact on a child's future living conditions, which is related to their future learning and employment. But now, many babies actually have some irreversible vision problems that parents may not have noticed yet. Let's take a look at how children develop amblyopia.
1. Amblyopia, as the name suggests, refers to a condition where a baby's vision is not fully developed and is lower than that of a normal child of the same age. The reasons for the inability to develop vision normally include strabismus, refraction, and so on. The reasons for each situation here are different, but no matter how it is treated, it is important to identify the cause. So if you want to treat a baby's amblyopia, you also need to know how amblyopia is formed.
2. There is also a situation where parents carefully observe and find that babies with crooked heads have facial features that are not on the same horizontal line. Specifically regarding the eyes, it means that the baby has one eye higher and the other lower. So, when he looks at things, his left and right eyes cannot cooperate well, and he will frequently use one eye to look at things, while the other eye's vision will decline due to long-term disuse, leading to amblyopia.
3. About 2 out of every 100 children have amblyopia. Children of different ages have different normal visual acuity. It is generally believed that children aged 3-5 with visual acuity below 0.5 and those over 5 years old with visual acuity below 0.7 may have amblyopia.
