AMBLYOPIA IN KIDS

About 4% of children globally are affectedby lazy eyes.
In fact, many children with amblyopia may have many
underlying binocular vision impairment and learning disabilities.

Overview

Lazy eye or Amblyopia in kids is a neuro-developmental disorder that typically manifests before the age of 8.

The child experiences reduced vision in one or both of the eyes as binocular vision is hindered. As a result, he develops lazy eye that cannot be corrected only with spectacle lenses.

About 4% of children globally are affected by lazy eyes. In fact, many children who are labelled as having learning disabilities have underlying binocular vision impairment. They have difficulty comprehending, copying from the board or screen, and slow eye-to-hand coordination. Detecting and solving the underlying problem is the only way to improve their academic performance.

What causes Amblyopia in kids?

The human brain interprets overlapping images coming from both eyes into one clear picture. But if both the eyes aren’t perfectly aligned or have different spectacle numbers, the images coming from them do not synchronize, and the brain confuses about processing the images or inputs. In response, the brain suppresses the poor quality image leading to Suppression. Suppression essentially means that the brain ignores the visual signals provided by one eye, typically the weaker eye. This is the primary cause of Amblyopia in kids and adults.

However, there are various disorders that can trigger Amblyopia in young kids, which include:

Squint/Strabismus

 Misalignment in eyes due to muscle imbalance 

Anisometropia

Different spectacle numbers in both eyes leading to distortion in the quality of images coming from both eyes

Congenital cataracts

Clouding of the lens in an infant

Excussive Level

Excessive levels of untreated myopia (nearsightedness) or hypermetropia (farsightedness) in both eyes

What are the symptoms of Amblyopia in kids?

The following are the most typical signs and symptoms of a lazy eye:

  • Squint
  • Headaches or fatigue
  • Squeezing one eye (particularly in bright sunlight)
  • Child complaining about poor depth perception and peripheral vision
  • Not able to see far objects clearly
  • Eye turning in, out, or up
  • Difficulty in focusing on objects

Amblyopia treatment in kids

If left untreated, a lazy eye may worsen and lead to permanent visual impairment. Therefore, treatment aims to improve vision in the lazy eye as early as possible and thereby optimize binocular vision.

But traditional approaches like eye patching or eye drops usually have an incidence of recurrence and can also take years for effective optimal results. Surgery for Amblyopia is only suggested if the child has a cataract or strabismus along with Amblyopia.
