VR technology can make patients with oblique amblyopia away from surgery

What can I do with VR? Asking this question, everyone may be too lazy to think about it, because it is really old to say that there are only a few aspects. Health. often. talk.

Then why do you still ask this question? Because the author recently discovered that as a normal person we may have been accustomed to using VR products as a form of entertainment, but there are such a group of people, after using VR, it may affect or even change their lives.

The author first tells a story to everyone:

James Blaha was diagnosed with strabismus and amblyopia at the age of one. Parents have tried countless methods and hope to cure their eyes. However, James does not cooperate very well. For example, he will secretly remove the cover that treats the amblyopia when his parents are not paying attention. After adulthood, the treatment is even more difficult.

It is obvious that the oblique amblyopia is inconvenient for James: because the left eye is amblyopia, when driving left, even if you try hard to turn the whole head, you will still be afraid to see the left rear vehicle, and you can’t feel solid, so he gives up. I drove and didn't get a driver's license (although some states in the United States allowed amblyopia patients to obtain a driver's license).

James has worked as a designer, programmer, etc., but because he does not have a driver's license, he can only work from home.

One day in 2013, James ordered an Oculus Rift, initially to experience the effects of VR games. Who knows after a while, when he opens the game again, a cube suddenly rushes to him! Scared that he subconsciously ducked back! Unexpectedly, this turned out to be the first time that James felt the world of 3D for more than two decades. Before that, he didn't even know what a three-dimensional world was.

Why do ordinary people feel the usual 3D effect, the oblique amblyopia group can not see? This is because most of the oblique amblyopia is a hidden danger in the eye, and it is difficult for the eyes to cooperate. To see the 3D effect, the first condition is that the two eyes can effectively cooperate, and the two eyes have similar visual acuity, so that the split images formed by special treatment pictures or special glasses can be effectively combined into a clear picture in the brain.

Seeing the 3D effect, does it mean that the eyes start to coordinate and cooperate? What effect will it have if it persists? Using the magical experience of the Oculus Rift, James embarked on the path of exploring vertebral amblyopia with VR.

That's right, James, the actor in the story, is the home VR that Xiaoyan interviewed to treat James Blaha, CEO of Vivid Vision, a company that treats amblyopia. Today, James's vision of amblyopia has recovered to 1.0.

Why can VR treat oblique amblyopia?

After extensive reading of scientific journals, consultation with ophthalmologists, and scientists, James finally understood "why VR can produce therapeutic effects on oblique amblyopia." In 2014, Vivid Vision was quickly established to help the majority of patients with oblique amblyopia.
