Amblyopia is known as cross eye and lazy eye, a condition most often seen in children when one eye has much stronger vision capabilities than the other. The brain favors the stronger eye, so there is a loss of vision and control in the weaker eye. Symptoms include blurry vision and double vision. Causes include abnormal eye shape and muscle control.
