First seen Jan 10, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 17 times

Summary

This study tests whether special glasses that blur the stronger eye can treat lazy eye (amblyopia) in children aged 3-12, compared to the standard sticky patch. The goal is to see if the glasses improve vision just as well or better, and if kids stick with the treatment more. About 68 children will participate, and their vision will be measured over time.
