An eye that is lazy.

Lazy eye is the common term for a condition characterized by unsychronized eye movement. the eyes have muscles controlling their movement and usually these muscles make the eyes move together to focus. A lazy eye will be slower to move causing a cross-eyed look when the eyes focus on an object.

Its when one of the muscles (I think there are four on each eye) that control movement is not working properly. Its called cerebral nerve palsy by doctor types.

I have a "lazy eye" it's correct name is Amblyopia.

Tabby, try Googling "define lazy eye" for a full
definition :o)

What is Amblyopia (Lazy Eye)?
Amblyopia, commonly known as lazy eye, is the eye condition noted by reduced vision not correctable by glasses or contact lenses and is not due to any eye disease. The brain, for some reason, does not fully acknowledge the images seen by the amblyopic eye. This almost always affects only one eye but may manifest with reduction of vision in both eyes. It is estimated that three percent of children under six have some form of amblyopia

If not detected and treated early in life, amblyopia can cause loss of vision and depth perception.
Improvements are possible at any age with proper treatment, but early detection and treatment offer the best outcome.
Comprehensive vision screenings are needed for infants and pre-school children. An eye exam by a pediatrician or the 20/20 eye chart screening is not adequate for the detection of amblyopia (and other visual conditions).

Amblyopia is a term used to describe an uncorrectable loss of vision in an eye that appears to be normal.
Some causes of amblyopia include: strabismus (crossed or turned eye), congenital cataracts, cloudy cornea, droopy eyelid, unequal vision and uncorrected nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism. Amblyopia may occur in various degrees depending on the severity of the underlying problem. Some patients just experience a partial loss; others are only able to recognize motion.

uncorrected by refraction exposed to bright light is lasy eye
