Description
Xindan Meng, Qing Wang, and Yixia Zhang report in 2026 a mismatch between blood flow and nerve signals in children with lazy eye from unequal focusing power. One eye sees poorly because the two eyes need very different lenses. Brain effects are known, yet retinal blood flow changes were less clear.
Sixty-eight untreated children aged 4 to 14 had the weaker eye compared with its healthy fellow. Scans showed thinner blood flow in the central retina and a wider vessel-free zone in lazy eyes. Electrical tests showed slower, weaker signals traveling from eye to brain. Flow and signal measures moved together, and nerve layer thickness helped predict sight level. Paired eye and brain markers may sharpen tracking.
