1. Neonate vision has myopia, the retinal→LGN→cortex mapping is spatially disorganised in neonates (ask someone with amblyopia what they can see with their amblyopic eye).
2. Yes binocularity as mainly signal/noise. And combine that with the very high contrast at the limbus of the eye pupil/sclera.

Nova Optic: Sourcing Orthoptic Eye Patches for Amblyopia and Strabismus Care
Nova Optic Orthoptic eye patches sit in a small but clinically specific procurement category, where adhesive tolerability and light blocking matter as much as unit price. Nova Optic is listed as an orthoptic eye patch built on a nonwoven carrier with a light-proof, non-adherent wound pad. The stated construction pairs a black light-blocking pad with a hypoallergenic adhesive. It is supplied sterile. The stated indications are amblyopia (lazy eye) and strabismus (crossed eyes), used as part of a recommended treatment plan. That framing places the patch inside clinician-directed occlusion therapy rather than general wound care.

every time I go to take a selfie I've begun to unironically do the chunni eye cover thing entirely because my amblyopia acts up SPECIFICALLY when I take selfies. unbelievable.

Wife is playing Fire Emblem on the TV and doing Dietrich’s route now. Big fan of Fabio, shout out to all my fellow big dawgs with amblyopia. I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen a video game character with it before.

And it does that by looking for low correlations: uncorrelated outputs in the cortex must come from widely separated inputs on the retina.

And it does it very well - usually. If the inputs are all too correlated (strabismus or poor focus) the you get amblyopia.

Drew a cutie patootie dog girl with amblyopia this morning.
She’s the manager at a job she hates but dreams of becoming a singer songwriter.

I wonder if its intentional that all the like, first partner characters of the main lords in fortune's weave have something going on with their eyes. Buccar has a scar over one of his eyes, Bonaventure has an eyepatch, Tialla wears glasses and Fabio has amblyopia

It’s not his fault he has amblyopia

What’s amblyopia?

So there's a character in the new Fire Emblem game called Fabio, a guy with amblyopia, and he might be my favorite character. Given that Fire Emblem is basically full of ~beautiful attractive hotties~, I was sure the moment I saw him that they'd give him an overly kind, 'look how nice and reliable >

But what about those oh so edgy lash out jokes she was making as to how fucked-up people with amblyopia look?
September 22, 2026 at 4:53 PM
I don't know what's going on with Fire Emblem these days, but I do think it's cool as hell to see people ship this Alucard looking pretty boy and a bowlcut priest with an amblyopia

I know it's grossly normal to mock someone for amblyopia because I never remember what it's called, since everyone around me just calls it by a derogatory term.

Amblyopia is lazy eye, where your brain is wired to ignore input from one eye. Strabismus is being cross-eyed, where your pupils don’t quite align. For strabismus, surgery can help. Both these conditions can result in BVD.

Our medical system is so fragmented and siloed. I had an optometrist who diagnosed me with amblyopia when I was younger, but never mentioned there were corrective lens available. It’s maddening.

These experiments helped us understand what is known as amblyopia, or lazy eye, which is what I have.

My brain overwhelmingly relies on input from my left eye. My right eye is structurally normal, but it’s quite weak. Doctors were never able to correct its vision to more than 20/40 or 20/60.

Amazing career. When I was a kid we had those glasses! (They didn’t work for me because amblyopia)

Well, while researchers AFAIK (haven't checked in A WHILE) so far don't really make this connection, check this case report out of someone via visual training+yoga serendipiously curing themselves of Aphantasia, which stems from before it got named as Aphantasia:
