I was diagnosed at age 7 with lazy eye in my left eye but I only wore the patch for a few weeks cause Id cry everyday cause I couldnt see. I was then diagnosed at 17 with only seeing 20% in my lazy eye. Im now 19 and Can still only see 20%. its so blurry and days I get frustrated that I cant see and my good eye even seems to get worse. My eyes are so bad I need to see my doctor every year instead of 2 years. I am pretty much completely blind in my eye and it sucks
