Hi
My daughter now aged 14 had a lazy eye which we only detected when she was about 11. Our optician in South Africa immediately put her on a strict cycle of covering her eye every day with one day off a week. It had to completely block out the light so it meant she had to wear a double eye patch sealed with micro pore (not a black patch). Her retina is now picking up images and she is of course using spectacles. We were recommended an optometrist in Potter's Bar and he has been treating her since we arrived in the country. iIcan recommend him to you but you will have some financial outlay...it will not all be free. His name is Dr Clyde Alexander and the tele number is 01707 652 322.
