Amblyopia treatment in Laser Vision at Bangkok Eye Hospital
About the clinic
Amblyopia treatment at Laser Vision at Bangkok Eye Hospital in Thailand addresses vision development disorders in children, often known as lazy eye. The hospital is the first specialized eye facility in Asia to receive accreditation from the American Accreditation Commission International (AACI). Patients benefit from a medical team with over 25 years of experience and a record of 100,000+ successful eye surgeries.
Advanced Pediatric Eye Care in Bangkok
The hospital features a dedicated Children's Eye Center designed to be child-friendly and welcoming. Specialized pediatric ophthalmologists, including Dr. Nichaboon Chotkajornkiat and Dr. Supawan Surukrattanasakul, manage the care for young patients. Dr. Chotkajornkiat is a Fellow of the International Council of Ophthalmology, while Dr. Surukrattanasakul holds first-class honors from Chulalongkorn University. They work alongside specialists like Dr. Sirin Lueangaram and Asst. Prof. Dr. Pornpattana Vichitvejpaisal to treat various causes of amblyopia.
Diagnosis and Treatment Methods
Treatment begins with a detailed pediatric eye exam to check visual acuity and eye alignment. Doctors also perform refraction tests to identify myopia or astigmatism. Depending on the child's needs, the medical team uses several methods to improve vision:
- Patching therapy to cover the stronger eye and strengthen the weaker one.
- Prescription glasses to correct unequal vision between the eyes.
- Atropine eye drops which temporarily blur the stronger eye to encourage use of the lazy eye.
- Vision therapy involving specific exercises to improve eye coordination.
- Surgery for cases caused by severe strabismus or congenital cataracts.
Expertise in Pediatric Ophthalmology
The specialists at the center handle complex cases, including those linked to neuro-ophthalmology and ocular oncology. Dr. Sirin Lueangaram completed a fellowship in pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus at Ramathibodi Hospital. Asst. Prof. Dr. Pornpattana Vichitvejpaisal is an active member of the International Society of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus. This depth of expertise helps in identifying issues like drooping eyelids or blocked visual pathways early. Early detection is vital to prevent permanent vision impairment in children.
