Amblyopia /Lazy eye
Ambliopía,
también conocida como “ojo perezoso”, es una condición visual que se desarrolla en la infancia, donde un ojo no alcanza una agudeza visual normal, incluso con el uso de gafas o lentes de contacto. Esto ocurre porque el cerebro y el ojo afectado no están trabajando juntos de manera adecuada, lo que lleva al cerebro a favorecer el otro ojo. Si no se trata, puede resultar en una pérdida permanente de la visión en el ojo afectado. El tratamiento puede incluir el uso de parches en el ojo dominante, gafas, gotas o, en algunos casos, cirugía.
