Summary

This study is testing whether playing video games and doing special vision exercises can improve eyesight in both children and adults with amblyopia (lazy eye). Researchers will measure changes in visual acuity, depth perception, and contrast sensitivity before and after the training. The goal is to see if the brain can learn to see better through these activities.
