	Amblyopia or "lazy eye" is a vision problem that affects less than three percent of the population but if left uncorrected, can have a big impact on their lives. Untreated amblyopia may lead to functional blindness in the affected eye. The amblyopic eye has the capability to see, but its image is
very blurred so the brain "turns off" input from this eye and elects to use only the stronger eye. r ead article
