Abstract :
In this paper, we introduce a diagnosis and treatment for amblyopia performed through a game suitable for children aged between 3 and 7. Our method places emphasis on cooperation between the two eyes to achieve a good binocular outcome to aid the recovery of depth perception. Our approach is not limited to a particular device or platform nor even to a aprticular form of game. Several prototype games have been developed, including 2D games and 3D games.
