    Exciting New Research on Amblyopia (Lazy Eye) Treatment

    —Amanda Zeller Manley, OD, FCOVD R.M., a 28-year-old man, was getting headaches more and more frequently when using a screen. As someone who spent most of his workday on the computer, this was a problem. A previous eye doctor told him he was out of luck, too old to fix his problem. R.M. had amblyopia, and his new eye doctor had referred him to me. Dr. Jeffrey Kraskin Last weekend was the 61st Annual Kraskin Invitational Skeffington Symposium (KISS), held in Bethesda, MD. One

    Is it a Behavior Problem? Or a Vision Problem?

    I recently had a discussion with a parent about behavior and vision problems. A mom of photo from Newsbusters.org one of our patients told me that the biggest change she has noticed is that, “It’s not nuclear war anymore,” when she tells her daughter it’s homework time. This makes perfect sense to me, and we hear similar stories all the time. If you, as an adult, were asked to do something frustrating, arduous and painful, on a daily basis, you would eventually refuse. You mi
