Question
A 7-year-old boy has blurred vision, and an ophthalmological examination shows he has strabismus. What are the treatment methods for amblyopia?
Answer
By the age of three, normal vision should reach 0.5 or higher, and it is generally not expected to reach 1 or 0. The best method for treating amblyopia is to undergo an eye examination for prescription and use appropriate glasses for correction, while covering one eye for treatment. Additionally, a follow-up ophthalmological examination is necessary to adjust the treatment method. Different causes can lead to different symptoms, so patients need to visit a regular hospital for systematic examinations to receive targeted treatment. Moreover, patients should maintain a regular work and rest time, take good cold prevention and warmth measures, and consume more light and soft foods. Regular ventilation and drinking plenty of hot water are also recommended.
