How to treat amblyopia?

Amblyopia is an eye disease which bothers a large number of people worldwide

. In order to force the "lazy" eye to function well, people have to cover their good eyes with an eye patch, so the "lazy" eye can have more practices so as to increase its ability to see clearly. Or they can use atropine eye drops to make the good-vision eye blurry, and depend on the lazy eye to see. But this needs more time to succeed compared with eye patch. Do you know that in order to save the vision of our lazy eye, we need to treat amblyopia at the age of ten? Yes, it is true. And how to treat it? Is there any supplement which can help? Read ahead, the following will give you answers.

Concerning the supplement for amblyopia, CDP-choline has been proved effective in treating conventional amblyopia by two scientific studies. The scientific name of CDP-choline is cytidine-5'-diphosphocholine, which is an important component of cell membranes all over our body and has the role of keep our body form and function well. An Italian study has proved CDP-choline enables people with amblyopia to have shorter time to improve their vision. According to the research, with 500 milligrams of CDP-choline everyday, children at the age of 5 to 9 can improve their vision in 10 days, while it takes 1 month for children to improve their vision by wearing eye patch.

But this does not mean CDP-choline is perfect for everyone with amblyopia. As a matter of fact, CDP-choline is similar to soy lecithin. If children are unluckily allegoric to soy, it is often the case that they may be also allergic to CDP-choline. Besides, though it is effective to treat amblyopia, this does not mean people can take as much as possible. Researches show if CDP-choline is taken too much, it will result in gas and diarrhea.

For adults with amblyopia, it is advised to stop smoking and drinking. Actually, researches show cigarettes and alcohol can be causes for amblyopia as cigarettes and alcohol will reduce the supply of the fatty acid DHA, which is essential in our body. After certain days of keeping away from smoking and drinking, their vision can be improved. Moreover, adults' amblyopia can be also caused by brain injury or side effects of prescription medications. For adults with amblyopia, they can take a complete B vitamin capsule and 300mg of magnesium a day for a week, then their vision will be improved.
