Amblyopia (or lazy eye) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that constitutes the largest threat to the vision of children and is caused by abnormal visual pathway development in early childhood. Currently, the prevailing approach for addressing amblyopia predominantly involves patching as a primary treatment modality. To address this global issue, ReAlign was developed. It is a web application that can both diagnose and treat amblyopia in young individuals using new advancements in technology. ReAlign allows for easy accessibility and use for children worldwide.
