What people call "lazy eye" is not always the same. Here are three forms of lazy eye that you might recognize.

I do not recommend any specific product for treatment. Have adult amblyopia, strabismus, or both? Watch my video for a new research technique to help improve...

Hello. I was recently diagnosed with optic neuritis. I was wondering if
ReplyDeletehaving a lazy I could be a cause of what I have been diagnosed with. I have
never had to leave your wandering eye before but now my left eye just seems
to drift off and stay that way both of my eyes moving the same way once I
tried to move them and I have tried exercises but nothing has seemed to
help do you have any answers for me
When I cover up my left eye everything my right eye sees is blurry and
ReplyDeleteunfocused
When i cover UP my right eye my left One , when i LOOK a Long Way isnt as
ReplyDeletefucust as the OTHER One ABOUT from 10 Meters Swayze IT gets unfocust i can
still see WHAT Objekts ARE but its a Bit unfocust
heyy. i have a question. my right just got smaller then the other. i dont
ReplyDeletehave a lazy eye but i had a cold last week and since then my right eye has
gotten smaller, can you please tell wht i should do ? im stressing alot :/
pleaseee helpppp
either one of my eyes can go lazy eye and i can control them at times too.
ReplyDeletewhen i zone out one of my eyes turns outward and i really have a tough time
paying attention in school. i also have been wearing glasses since 3rd
grade it scares me though if it becomes a problem i would have to get
surgery
im 34 and i still have lazy eye, i cant count the number of faces ive
ReplyDeletesmashed that made smart comments, and sometimes when i look at my bad eye
in the mirror i wish i was dead
I didn't know Mr.Clean was an optometrist. :)
ReplyDeletei also have 20/20 vision in my good eye but 20/200 in my lazy eye dilated.
ReplyDeletei wear contacts and have +0.75 in my left and +3.75 in my right. do you
find your eyes get tired easily too? i was born early and this is possibly
what contributed to my lazy eye. were you also born early? my mom has this
condition but hers is worse she is farsighted in one eye and nearsighted in
the other eye. not sure which.
I have a 4 month old baby that might have a lazy eye, is there something
ReplyDeletethat I can do to confirm this or do I have to take him to the doctor. His
next doctor's appointment is in 2 months. Thx
too late for me????i just want a cure
ReplyDeleteHello I'm Shane I have had a lazy eye since I can remember when I was
ReplyDeletearound 6 I wore a patch and glasses and at 10 I had surgery to straighten
my right eye but now I am 16 and it has come back. Is there anything I can
do? Please pm me thanks a lot Shane
@skylet07 Very good question. This gets into the details of amblyopia and
ReplyDeletestrabismus. The most important thing to do is find out why the right eye
turns in. It just might be because the eyes are trying very hard to focus,
thus causing the eye to turn in a little(the two actions are connected). If
that is the case, appropriate reading glasses would do wonders. I see that
in college age people all the time. Amblyopia is the inability of the brain
to distinguish small detail.
When I was younger on my pictures my eyes were normal, then in my teens I
ReplyDeletenotice that the lid on my left eye was getting lower. I needed glasses as
well because I could not see the blackboard anymore in High School, but
would not wear them. When I reached my 30s I notice people would stare at
me, I then notice I looked like I had one big eye and one little eye and
wore contacts. I am in my 40s and still have that big eye/little eye
problem? what can I do people stare sometimes?
when i was a kid and patched i hated having to look out of my bad eye so i
ReplyDeletewould take off my patch. m left eye is now considered blind
my right eye is in the same spot but my left is always instad of being
ReplyDeletestright it goes left ... i can see very good but its weird that one eye is
looking stright and the other is to the left ... people dont notice unless
they're staring right into my eye for a long time ..
around i have to close he right eye to see down the scope correctly. And
ReplyDeletewhen i do so my left eye does not see corectly. And i mean i cant see
throught half of my left eye.
im 15 and I have lazy eye but my both eyes are always looking in the same
ReplyDeletedirection. I found this out when I was 12 and have been wearing glasses
since. my doctor recommended that I stop wearing my eye patch. in the
future will my vision with my lazy eye get worse?? and will my eye lid ever
shut for good?? I am a little worried and plz reply. .
Apparently my lazy eye issue is that I can't look at something with both
ReplyDeleteeyes at once but only one eye at the time, and occasionally one moves. But
unfortunately, it'sone of the reasons I can't drive.
eh i have lazy eye when someone points a finger at me my left eye looks the
ReplyDeleteother way

ReplyDelete@stevencl17 I wish esotropia was a simple thing. It ranges in complexity
ReplyDeletethough and may or may not involve the accommodation (focusing ability of
the eyes). Sometimes the contacts work as well as glasses and sometimes
not. Same goes for LASIK. But probably less so for LASIK. When the surgeon
determines your candidacy, he/she should measure the relationship between
the accommodation and the turning of the eye. If only one eye turns and it
is constant, then strabismus surgery might be a good
Thanks for clarification. The problem is that "Lazy Eye" has two meanings:
ReplyDelete1) Eyes that "drift out" - Strabismus 2) Eyes that can not be made clear
with plus or minus lens - Amblyopia The reasons for these two separate
effects - have never been made clear - as science.
this vid wont work so who ever sees my message please help me please.... im
ReplyDeleteblind in 1 eye and my mom told me theres eye exercises but i cant do it
cause i cant c in my right im sick of people making fun of me at school i

O Man Thanks i Wish I Had My Xbox 360 i Would Have Fun DOing This
ReplyDeleteI get a bit of blurryness, but not bad.
ReplyDeleteOmg I Was Just Reading About This Playing Video Games While Patching I
ReplyDeleteStarted Doing It But It So Hard Im Not Used To Only Seeing With Only One
Eye...Has This Help Your Eyes From Not Crossing? Plz Help Me
what was it like wearing it?
ReplyDeleteHey, that's great news, i'm gonna try this myself but I want to ask you how
ReplyDeletelong it took you to feel any vision improvement ?
I get a headache and feel a lot of strain on the left side of my head
ReplyDeleteduring this. Is this symptom normal?
That sounds cool if its treatable. Do you have any specific games yo can
ReplyDeleterecommend.? Ive noticed too that sometimes it seems to get worse when I'm
stressed or nervous. Do you ever feel that or is that just me?
I think so, there is definitely sound to the video.
ReplyDeleteThis video is great, I was just wondering. What is your vision in both eyes
ReplyDeletebefore and after this therapy?
@asilverscreenromance: I hope your corrective procedure holds for you!
ReplyDelete*hugs* I've had 5 strabismus surgeries. Alas, my eyes never fused despite
doing all of the exercises as a child.
How long did it take you to start seeing results?
ReplyDeleteI have both Amblylopia and Strabismus as well. My Strabismus is really bad
ReplyDeleteand amblyopia has recently gotten worse. I never wore a patch as a child
growing up so I ALWAYS got the "What are you looking at" comments all the
time. Not to mention I had these glasses w/ extra thick lenses my entire
childhood. When I was about 4 or 5)my grandmother would cover my stronger
eye and have me to exercise my weaker one. Your video is encouraging! Long
story short, I just started wearing an eye patch today.
i was born with neither of my eyes aligned so i don't think that i've ever
ReplyDeleteused the patch before. i just had surgery done (like yesterday) on my left
eye to get it straight as much as it could - it was turned inward and down.
my right eye is slightly to the left and a little down and my doctor said
that because that is the eye that i use to see with, she doesn't want to
risk doing the same surgery and having my vision get worse. lasik wont help
either. i think this is worth giving it a shot.
Thank you for this, this puts so much into context and some hope for the
ReplyDeletefuture. Thanks!
Great video. I would also like to know whether or not you're suppose to
ReplyDeletewear your glasses while patching. I read the initial study, but didn't find
the information in the methodology. Thanks.
Walmart has them. Put the patch on your good eye.
ReplyDeletei have played battlefield 3 a total of 35 hours on my bad eye and I must
ReplyDeletesay the results are incredible ;) i play 2 hours everyday and every week i
feel a improvement. I can read subtitles on tv and read books :D my goal is
to get 20/25, Before i started patching I had 20/100, a month ago my vision
was almost 20/50 and My vision has improved very fast since the test I'm
going test my acuity tomorrow wish me luck ;) i have patched alot without
playing aproximately 250 hours !
I'm doing the second part this summer. I did it for 3 hours a day, but the
ReplyDeletestandard procedure is one hour a day for 50 hours.
Thanks for posting this. I've got the same problem, and before seeing this
ReplyDeletevideo, came to the conclusion that playing fast-paced arcade-style games
with an eye-patch would be my best bet for healing/reversing the condition.
Now I'm definitely going to pursue that self-treatment. I also have a
theory that puts patching-while-running/jogging as the next best thing...
but I've never heard of a study suggesting anything similar to back me up.
Anyways, thanks again.
I'm 32 and have amblyopia. But also my right eye, which is the affected
ReplyDeleteone, has very blurry vision. The doctors I went to never figured out or
told me what was going on or what I could do. I got 2 different glasses in
the last 20 years and never was able to see as clear with my right eye as I
do with my left eye. So, if I try and patch my left eye, I will not be able
to read very well. So, I ask myself: will it get better when I go on with
patching or will it stay blurry?
Thanks for this post! Hope I understood well, I have to patch my eye as
ReplyDeletemuch i can, and to play video game? You gave me hope! Thanks a million.
Hope we'll all hear from you gain.. im so curious how that study goes...
I have amblyopia on my right eye. Used patches when i was a kid, but i kept
ReplyDeletetaking it off cause i didnt see anything, so i stopped. I have never had
problems with 3D imaging. I really get the effect when watching 3D movies
at the cinema. Ive never heard of video gaming improving the vision.
Luckily for me because i play video games alot.
Hi! When you patch your eye and play video games do you patch your eye do
ReplyDeleteyou wear your prescription glasses or just patch it without the glasses and
play the video games. Please text me at darrenliewweiyao@gmail.com. Thanks!
This may sound like a dumb question but assume you put the patch on your
ReplyDeletestrong eye so your weak eye gets stronger? When I do this I get what I call
TV eyes and it hurts a little bit. How long should I keep it up in one
sitting? Also, I have had strabismus surgery once and am considering doing
it again. What are your feelings on the surgery?
@vitaminsforbreakfast Hi! How long was the experiment and how much time
ReplyDeletedaily you spent on it? When will be 2nd part?
