Can I take off my glasses if I am amblyopic?

  Parents of amblyopic children are concerned about whether they can take off their glasses after wearing them, so here is a picture to answer your questions. Whether the glasses can be removed depends on the refractive state that leads to the formation of amblyopia, the level of refractive error, whether the amblyopia can eventually be completely cured, the refractive state refers to the refractive state of the amblyopic child is myopic, hyperopic or astigmatic.  1, myopia caused by amblyopia can lead to the formation of amblyopia is generally highly myopic, so even after the cure of amblyopia glasses can not be removed.  2, amblyopia caused by hyperopia amblyopia caused by hyperopia, depending on the degree of hyperopia. If it is mild or moderate hyperopia, and there is no high astigmatism (less than 150 degrees), after the complete cure of amblyopia, with the growth of age, the hyperopia will gradually reduce to about a hundred degrees, it is possible to take off the glasses. Most of the causes of amblyopia are due to this type of hyperopia. High hyperopia (farsightedness of six hundred degrees or more) is less likely to be removed because it is difficult to reduce the farsightedness when the patient grows up. This requires the child to do more near vision training, so that the farsightedness decreases a little faster, there is still the possibility of taking off the glasses.  3, astigmatism caused by amblyopia If the astigmatism is high, more than two hundred degrees, after the cure of amblyopia glasses can not be removed, but after growing up adults can be done through excimer laser astigmatism, you can both remove glasses and have better naked eye vision.  4, monocular amblyopia For the good eye of monocular amblyopia patients, because of the low farsightedness, if during development did not pay attention to eye hygiene, resulting in a rapid decline in farsightedness and myopia, even if the amblyopia is cured after a short time to remove glasses, later due to the formation of myopia also need to wear myopic glasses. This requires monocular amblyopia patients to protect the healthy eye to avoid the formation of myopia. Before the age of 18, when the development of refractive error has not stopped, it is not true that the eyes remain in good condition after the farsightedness has been reduced, but myopia will develop after the farsightedness has been reduced. Amblyopia still requires regular visits to the hospital after reaching the condition of lens removal in order to observe and prevent the formation of myopia.
