Brief Summary
|
We are conducting this cross sectional questionnaire based study to assess the pre-existing knowledge, attitude and practice among the parents of amblyopes about Amblyopia and we are imparting education regarding the same following that. After educating the parents we are reassessing the status of their awareness regarding Amblyopia and the effect it will have on their children. We hope to impart education regarding this issue and spread awareness regarding the same through the process. |
