A member asked:

Is it possible to get a lazy eye only for a short period of time?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

What do you mean?: What do you mean by lazy eye? Lazy eye 2/2 poor vision or lazy eye 2/2 eye muscle weakness? Person could have an intermittent lazy eye. But it needs an ophthalmologist eval.
