Amblyopia ex anopsia - what does this mean

Amblyopia ex anopsia is a condition caused by the lack of use of one eye, resulting in reduced vision in that eye. this can be caused by refractive errors, strabismus, or other eye related problems, which lead to the weaker eye not receiving enough visual stimulation. this causes the brain to favor the stronger eye, and the weaker eye will eventually become amblyopic.

What happens during the disease - amblyopia ex anopsia

Amblyopia ex anopsia is a condition in which there is a decrease in vision in one eye due to a lack of normal visual stimulation. this can occur due to a misalignment of the eyes, a refractive error, or a cataract. this lack of stimulation leads to the development of abnormal neural connections in the brain, which can cause a decrease in vision in the affected eye.
