Cover one eye with the one with good eyesight and force you to see with the one with amblyopia. After a period of forced stimulation, the vision of amblyopic eyes can be improved. Alternate covering method (alternately covering healthy eyes and amblyopic eyes) can also be used, which is simple and easy to implement. If healthy eyes are covered for 5 ~ 6 days a week, and amblyopia eyes are covered for 1 ~ 2 days a week, the effect is better.

Afterimage therapy

After seeing an object 10 seconds under strong light stimulation, you can still feel the object in front of you when you close your eyes. This kind of image is medically called afterimage. In medicine, the principle of afterimage is used to stimulate the retina with the strong light of the afterimage mirror (generally 20 seconds to 1 min), thus improving the visual function of macular fovea and treating amblyopia.

Red filter therapy

Wear red glasses with wavelength of 600 ~ 640 nm before amblyopia, and completely cover healthy eyes. Practice 1 ~ 2 times a day, each time 10 ~ 15 minutes, and gradually extend the time to several hours, so as to achieve the purpose of treating amblyopia.

There are many ways to treat amblyopia. Which is the best depends on the nature, degree, age and diopter of each child's amblyopia, and pay attention to the treatment before the age of 7.
