Amblyopia, also known as lazy eye, is a vision disorder where one eye is unable to develop normal vision, even with glasses or lenses on. Here are a few exercises that can help improve lazy eye at home. Tap to know!

Take a colouring book with prominent outlines and place a patch on the stronger eye. Then, carefully colour the drawing by staying within the lines.

Special video games played with goggles on can help strengthen lazy eye, as each eye views something different, such as a high contrast image.

Hold a pencil in front of you and slowly move it towards your nose as much as possible until the vision becomes blurry. Then, move it away.

A jigsaw puzzle is a great way to treat lazy eye while enhancing cognitive function. Play a jigsaw puzzle by putting an eyepatch over the stronger eye.

Take a string with colourful beads and tie one end at a fixed place at eye level. Focus on a single bead, forming an X shape and the other beads should appear double.

Reading can help improve lazy eye by covering the stronger eye with an eye patch and reading with the weak eye. Do this daily at least for 30 minutes for better results.

Draw dots on a card and hold it while touching your nose. Focus on the farthest dot by tilting the card. If your eyes are converging correctly, they should form an A without getting blurry.
