Question

A six-year-old boy has been diagnosed with myopic amblyopia and strabismus. His parents are concerned about why the myopia degree has not decreased after amblyopia treatment?

Answer

The recovery of amblyopia means correcting vision, i.e., the vision has reached normal after wearing glasses. However, the treatment goal for myopia is to improve uncorrected vision, reaching the normal standard of 1.0 uncorrected vision and being able to see clearly without glasses to achieve the clinical effect of myopia treatment. Different causes lead to different symptoms, and patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at regular three-level A hospitals as soon as possible based on their own condition for targeted treatment. In addition, patients need to maintain regular routines, do a good job of keeping warm, consume light and soft foods in daily diet, often ventilate, and drink warm water.
