Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) Treatment

Amblyopia - Lazy Eye Treatment Clinic for Children

How often have you noticed your child sitting too close to the TV or holding books and devices unusually close to their eyes? These could be the signs of vision difficulties like amblyopia.

Amblyopia, commonly known as "lazy eye," is a vision development disorder in children where one eye fails to achieve normal visual acuity, even with prescription glasses or contact lenses. It's the most common cause of vision problems in children and, if left untreated, can have lifelong consequences.

Bynocs - Innovative Treatment at Eye Clinic London

At Eye Clinic London, we have embraced an innovative approach to treating amblyopia: the Bynocs method. This cutting-edge treatment involves the use of specialised equipment and techniques designed to stimulate and train the weaker eye, thereby improving its function and coordination with the brain.

Unlike traditional methods, which often rely solely on patching, Bynocs targets the neurological aspects of amblyopia. It encourages neural development and visual acuity in a more engaging and child-friendly way. Bynocs involves your child playing specially designed computer games while wearing anaglyph glasses, effectively training the weaker eye by adjusting visual inputs, thus enhancing overall visual acuity. This dichoptic therapy has shown promising results, especially in cases where traditional treatments have been less effective or in older children.

Early detection and treatment of amblyopia are crucial for effective outcomes. At Eye Clinic London, our commitment to incorporating the latest advancements like Bynocs into our treatment protocols ensures that children receive the most effective and modern care available, offering them the best chance for improved vision and quality of life.
