Lazy Eye (Amblyopia): Know the Risk Factors 👁️
Lazy Eye, medically known as Amblyopia, is a childhood vision condition where one eye has reduced vision because the brain favors the other. If left untreated, it can lead to permanent vision loss.
Major Risk Factors ⚠️
✅ Premature Birth (असमय जन्म) – Babies born too early have a higher chance of developing lazy eye.
✅ Low Birth Weight (कम जन्म वज़न) – Underweight newborns are at increased risk.
✅ Family History (परिवार में इतिहास) – If parents or siblings had amblyopia, the child is more likely to develop it.
✅ Developmental Delays (विकास में देरी) – Children with delayed development may face higher risks.
Why Early Detection Matters 🌟
Detecting and treating lazy eye early ensures better chances of restoring normal vision. Regular eye check-ups for children are essential, especially if they fall into these risk categories.
