Help with Amblyopia exercises

Children suffering from amblyopia, commonly called lazy eye, often refuse do vision correction exercises. Correction of amblyopia involves repetitive coordination exercises, such as navigating a maze on paper or tracing shapes. The tediousness of these exercises is one of the greatest challenges in gaining vision improvements in amblyopic children. Now, IdeaBus with the help of Dr. Sharon Chuang, an ophthalmologist, has created “Captain Lazy Eye” for the iPad. This software turns eye exercises into fun games wrapped in a welcoming pirate theme. Captain Lazy Eye encourages children to patch their eyes like pirates and do the exercises in order to achieve training goals. The app records a child’s training status and results on a graph which enables parents to easily see the child’s progress. This also allows a physician to have an accurate training log for reference during regular clinical visits. To find out more visit: www.ideabus.com.tw/lazyeye
