Summary
This study tests whether adding echothiophate eye drops to standard atropine treatment can improve vision in children aged 3 to 17 with refractory amblyopia (lazy eye that hasn't improved with usual care). Twenty participants will use atropine in the stronger eye for 4 weeks; if no improvement, they add echothiophate to the weaker eye for 8 more weeks. The goal is to see if this combination can boost eyesight, depth perception, and motion detection.
