amblyopia is reduced vision from abnormal visual development, usually starting in early childhood. It happens when the brain learns to rely on one eye more than the other, even if the eye itself looks healthy. It is commonly discussed in pediatric eye care, optometry, and ophthalmology. People often hear it called “lazy eye,” although that phrase can be misleading.
