Question

Can wear contact lenses if I have Amblyopia a (lazy eye)...?

Answer 1

Sure. I do. The non-lazy eye will probably be fully corrected with contacts, but the lazy eye may or may not. I was told all my life that no correction could be given to my lazy eye, but it turned out that contacts really did make a difference. When I wear my contact on my lazy eye, it is usually a lot straighter! If your doctor ever tells you that the lazy eye is non-correctable, try getting a second opinion. I did and it worked out for me!

Answer 2

You can in the other eye if it needs a correction , but it wouldn't help the lazy eye..

Answer 3

Yes you can wear lenses with Amblyopia. I do, although my lazy eye is really bad, it doesnt make any difference to my sight, but if was to were one contact in my good eye and not one in my bad eye then I would feel unbalanced.
