A member asked:
My son is wearing an eye patch to help his lazy eye. want to know if the patching can cause the lazy eye to be red ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: The patch when properly used does not touch or otherwise effect the eye it covers. It may helps keep the lid closed while the eye is not in use. Any redness is something else.
