Amblyopia is a developmental problem in the brain, not any intrinsic, organic neurological problem in the eyeball (although organic problems can lead to amblyopia which can continue to exist after the organic problem has resolved by medical intervention).
Amblyopi er et udviklingsproblem i hjernen, ikke et organisk problem i øjet (selv om organiske problemer kan forårsage amblyopi, der vedvarer efter det organiske problem er løst).
