Amblyopia or Lazy Eye
Lazy eye (amblyopia) is a developmental issue that results in eyes that are misaligned. That means there can be a significant difference in your child's vision from eye to eye. Over time, the stronger eye tends to take over, while the weaker eye continues to weaken. Signs and symptoms usually develop before age six.
At AdventHealth for Children, our experts diagnose and treat amblyopia early with a combination of proven therapies, giving kids the best chance for healthy eyesight in the future.
One Comprehensive Pediatric Network
If your child’s eye condition requires a team of specialists from additional medical disciplines, rest assured. Our team of pediatric ophthalmologists and surgeons are connected to an extensive local network of pediatric specialists and imaging centers to support your child with whole-person pediatric care from diagnosis through healing.
Retinopathy of Prematurity
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) can affect premature infants born before 31-weeks gestation or weighing 2¾ pounds or less at birth. This disorder usually affects both eyes and is one of the most common causes of visual loss in childhood. The AdventHealth for Children’s skilled team of NICU and pediatric specialists put your child’s whole health first, coordinating care to help prevent life-long vision loss or blindness that can occur with ROP.
