Summary

This trial is testing whether a new, improved treatment for amblyopia (lazy eye) is more effective than the current standard of care.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 4-10 with lazy eye, who have a certain level of vision in their amblyopic (weak) and fellow eyes. They must be able to play binocular games, have not received similar treatments recently, and agree to avoid patching during the study. Children with significant strabismus, premature birth history, other diseases or developmental delays cannot participate.
What is being tested?
The trial tests if playing specially designed binocular games can more effectively treat lazy eye in kids compared to traditional methods. It aims for a complete and stable visual improvement over a 12-week period without using an eye patch.
What are the potential side effects?
While this study involves non-invasive treatment through games, potential side effects may include eyestrain or headaches due to prolonged screen time or frustration if difficulties arise while playing the games.
