The good news is that the condition is treatable in young children and very much so if it is diagnosed before the age of two. So one goal of Levi's research is earliest possible diagnosis. Another goal is to identify the exact causes at the neurological level. In addition, challenging the perception that adults with amblyopia are untreatable, Levi and his UH colleagues are striving toward effective treatment for adults, and they're succeeding. Many patients have usable vision in both eyes, but the brain is actually switching back and forth from eye to eye and only seeing from one eye at a time, with no depth perception.
Subtle things limit people with amblyopia.
In our research he improved. To provide a training ground for students, many university optometry schools operate clinics that serve the university's own denizens, who tend to have normal, albeit corrected, eyesight. At the University of Houston, the University Eye Institute serves all of Houston, and students in the college serve patients from near and far. Our students have a strong and rich experience. The University Eye Institute has satellite clinics in Houston.
