@drsermedmezher: Doctor Explains the “Lazy Eye” Trend Source: @notmayauy The term “lazy eye” is often used incorrectly to describe a squint (strabismus), but these are actually two different eye conditions. A squint occurs when the eyes do not align properly — one eye may turn in, out, up, or down while the other focuses straight ahead. This misalignment means both eyes are not working together, which can lead to double vision or the brain ignoring input from one eye to avoid confusion. In contrast, a “lazy eye”, or amblyopia, refers to reduced vision in one eye because the brain favors the other. This usually develops when one eye sends a weaker or unclear image to the brain, often as a result of an untreated squint, unequal vision (refractive error), or another visual problem early in childhood. While a squint affects eye alignment, amblyopia affects visual development. In short, a squint can cause a lazy eye if not corrected early, but the two terms describe different issues — one with eye position, the other with visual function. #eyes #vision #test
