What are the causes of congenital amblyopia?

Congenital amblyopia may be caused by abnormal development of the visual system. Smoking during pregnancy and premature delivery may induce congenital amblyopia.

First, the basic causes

1. The visual system

cannot develop normally after birth. One eye has better vision, and one eye has poor vision. The healthy eye inhibits the eye with poor vision, resulting in blurred eye imaging and congenital amblyopia.

Second, the inducing factors

1. Smoking during pregnancy

may affect the internal environment and interfere with the development of the fetal visual system, leading to an increase in the incidence

of congenital amblyopia.
