Symptoms and diagnosis of amblyopia in children

Children's amblyopia, also known as "lazy eyes", refers to the visual dysfunction caused by the lack of visual stimulation or visual abnormalities during children's visual development. The main symptoms of amblyopia in children include blurred vision, eye deviation, eye fatigue, etc. Diagnosing amblyopia in children usually requires detailed ophthalmic examination, including vision examination, fundus examination, corneal curvature measurement, etc.

The diagnosis of amblyopia in children needs to exclude other causes of vision abnormalities, such as ametropia, strabismus, cataract, etc. In Zhongshan Children's Ophthalmology Department, we have advanced equipment and an experienced team of doctors, who can accurately diagnose children's amblyopia and develop personalized treatment plans.

Treatment of amblyopia in children

The treatment of amblyopia in children generally adopts comprehensive measures such as protecting vision, correcting ametropia, and restoring normal visual function. Here are some commonly used treatments.

1. Wearing corrective glasses: for children with amblyopia caused by ametropia, the refractive power can be corrected and the vision can be improved by wearing corrective glasses.

2. Use of amblyopia corrector: The amblyopia corrector is a special kind of glasses, which can shield the eyes with good vision, force the eyes to carry out visual training, and promote the recovery of their visual function.

3. Visual training: Visual training is an important part of amblyopia treatment for children. Through a series of eye movement training and visual stimulation, it can promote the development and recovery of visual function of the affected eye.

4. Surgical treatment: for some serious children with amblyopia, if corrective glasses and visual training are ineffective, surgical treatment, such as strabismus correction surgery, can be considered.

Therapeutic effect and precautions of amblyopia in children

The treatment of children's amblyopia needs to be persisted for a long time and adjusted according to the individual condition of the patient. The evaluation of treatment effect is mainly carried out through visual acuity test and visual function test.

It should be noted that parents' cooperation is very important in the treatment of children's amblyopia. Parents need to actively cooperate with their children for treatment to ensure that they wear orthotics and participate in visual training on time.

In addition, controlling the time of using electronic products is also an important link in the treatment of children's amblyopia. Long term use of electronic products will lead to eye fatigue, which is not conducive to vision recovery.

summary

Children's amblyopia is a common ophthalmic problem, which has a great impact on children's vision development. In Zhongshan Children's Ophthalmology Department, we have rich experience and advanced equipment, which can provide personalized treatment programs for children with amblyopia. Through wearing corrective glasses, using amblyopia correctors, visual training and other comprehensive measures, children's amblyopia symptoms can be effectively improved and their vision can be improved. However, the treatment of children's amblyopia needs long-term adherence, and the active cooperation of parents is crucial. In addition, reasonably controlling the time of using electronic products is also an important link in the treatment of children's amblyopia.
