Can there be a permanent remedy for lazy eye?

Depends: Depends on what you mean by lazy eye. We (pediatric ophthalmologists) have abandoned that term as it can mean reduced vision (amblyopia), mis-aligned eyes (strabismus), droopy eyelids (ptosis) to name a few. Please be specific as to what you mean by "lazy eye".
