Amblyopia is the medical term used when the vision in one of the eyes is reduced because the eye and the brain are not working together properly. The eye itself looks normal, but it is not being used normally because the brain is favoring the other eye. This condition is also sometimes called lazy eye.
ALWAYS check pupils before dilating. Used to assess optic nerve function or diffuse retinal disease, a small APD can also be present in amblyopia. Check pupils with a bright light, such as Finhoff or even the indirect head lamp. Rated as no APD, or 1+ to 4+ APD (4+ is amaurotic pupil that does not react to light).
