Review Time
I had been determined to find something like amblyopia to receive the vision therapy that I knew in my gut would help me with my amblyopia, I am a 52 yr young women who loves a challenge and when my eye doctor told me last year that nothing could ever correct it and didn't even want to bother with a prescription for glasses and.told me to just keep wearing reader's from Walmart! He underestimated who he was talking to because that day I went in with the knowledge of brain plasticity and Amblyoplay! He was embarrassed as he should have been. So if an ignorant eye doctor tells you the same know that you can improve in just 2 months I literally have 3d vision I'm my near vision and it was so amazing when I saw depth for first time. Repetition Is the key Repetition rewires your brain and that is exactly what Amblyoplay will do! Trust the process.
Amblyoplay has been wonderful for our daughter. I do recommend this program for children five and up. We first started at four years old and my daughter was not as receptive, and had sensory issues with putting the 3-D glasses over her prescription glasses. At age 5 she was a lot more receptive to doing the eye therapy. We also purchased 3-D clip on glasses through Amazon, which definitely helped with her sensory issues and awkwardness of it being over her glasses. The app is super user-friendly, and for the most part my daughter can complete on her own. She is very excited when she sees the progress of her eye becoming stronger! We as parents definitely see improvement!! We try to aim for 30 minutes of training daily. My daughter does have games on the app she prefers over others, but they keep her challenged. She loves the idea of exercising her eye, making it stronger just like any other body part! It's definitely a boost of confidence! We appreciate this app so much we have recommended this to other parents at her school that have children with the same eye condition, they were so grateful! My daughter hopes to see new games added in the future, otherwise 10 out of 10!
Child feedback that his 3D vision has improved and he can see 3D images better as compared to before the therapy. However, our 3D glasses broke and had to pay for a new one to be shipped over in order to continue with the therapy… hope they can make better quality kids friendly 3D glasses that can last longer.
As an adult, I’m not exactly in Ambyloplay's target demographic—it's designed primarily for kids. However, I’ve been looking for a way to train my eyes to help with strabismus and amblyopia, so I gave it a try. Instead of using special glasses, the system recommended I wear an eye patch, which was a bit of a letdown given the hefty €60/month price tag. You'd think they could include an eye patch (which costs only a few cents), but nope! Luckily, my kids had an old pirate eye patch lying around, so I made do.Comparing it to another health-related gaming product, Perifit (which helps you train your pelvic floor through games), Ambyloplay falls short in several areas. With Perifit, you pay once and gain access to a community and regularly updated games. There’s a much wider variety of games, they’re less frantic (a plus for me), and they offer solid, detailed stats. Ambyloplay, on the other hand, really misses the mark in terms of tracking and feedback. You can do a vision test each week, but the results aren’t explained or compared to previous tests, so you’re left guessing at your progress.I also don’t understand the gaming system. You get a score after each game, but it seems irrelevant—the important part is that you complete the training to earn diamonds, which you can use to customize your character. Sure, this might be motivating for kids, but it doesn’t do much for me. Plus, the score isn’t saved, so you can’t see how you performed in the past or how you stack up against others. The score seems entirely pointless, which is frustrating.Overall, while I’ll stick with Ambyloplay for a bit longer due to the lack of alternatives, it’s definitely not worth the subscription price. €8-10 per month would be more reasonable; €60 is just too much. Even my kids, who usually love anything on a screen, find the games boring. That says a lot!
Discovering & using Amblyoplay as an adult has dramatically improved my vision & FAR exceeded my expectations.I learned to read aged 3 but it soon became apparent that I had great difficulty with any ball games as I couldn't judge distance. A school sight test revealed I had one strong long-sighted eye & a very weak short-sighted one. 1970s glasses, patches & frequent trips to the opthalmologist up to age 16 didn't really make a difference. At school, I found I could read words upside down, back to front & vertically (I now realise it was all about the shapes) but was hopeless with maths (which requires correct digit-by-digit accuracy, which wasn't possible as eye's didn't focus together). In adolescence & adulthood I suffered with visual disturbance, migraines, neck & shoulder strain - not really helped by a career in editing!Over time, my weaker right eye increasingly turned outwards, which looked weird & shattered my confidence, exacerbated by the thick convex balancing lens. The introduction of varifocal & thinner lenses was a significant improvement, but I was still hampered with judging distance & reading comfortably. The impact has got worse now the world has switched from passwords to pin numbers or codes & phone numbers. Even worse, all of these are now being presented as a string of (usually tiny) digits without any breaks, which puts me at a great disadvantage. Not to mention frustration.Completely unrelated to this, my son chose optometry as a degree. On an open day he discovered that computer programmes have been developed to help children with amblyopia. I had assumed it was a rare condition but is obviously far more common now. Not one for the shooting-based games, while looking for alternatives, I am very grateful to have discovered Amblyoplay.The programme’s exercises are based on standard (retro) games, including Tetris, Crossy Road, Flappy Bird, Catch the Birdie, Maze, Collect Shapes, Catch Monsters, Planets etc, all of which require specific eye movements. Regular Amblyoplay email articles explain how each helps and shares easily explained research. Unused to computer games I did need teenage help, as well as the tutorials, but have now honed my skills and settled on favourite games, based on challenge + enjoyment.The best part for someone non-competitive like me is that progress is entirely from your results, rather than external league tables. Amblyoplay does also provide for other family members, with stand-alone games that children & grandchildren can play alongside, to make it more fun. Daily sessions comprise 3 varied games & 2 standard eye movement exercises; a 20-minute break; then another 3 games & 2 exercises. Unexpectedly, the hour of time-out from life that these sessions bring has become immensely beneficial & important to me in terms of mental health. It’s rare to be able to be so self-absorbed with a positive activity: A real added bonus - as long as I turn the programme’s sound off! Though, some evenings it’s a rush to ensure the session is completed before midnight. If it overruns, the programme records the session as being on the following day, which can prevent sessions until the day after.Improvement relies on regular use & the programme gives very helpful motivation from feedback after each session + weekly email summaries. The first tangible feedback for me was from the Brock String where I progressed from finding it impossible to see the coloured balls (even with my glasses that contain a prism), to seeing them very easily without glasses. An admission here: I also gain motivations & huge satisfaction from the rewards of personalising the series of characters along the way. NB: If you’re desperate to gain sufficient points to finish a character; this can be helped by relatives playing the stand-alone games!After 11 months, my optician is very impressed & has now prescribed glasses that no longer exclude the weak eye, but use it.Best of all, as my binocular vision has improved so much reading is easier, I no longer drop as many things, my eye & neck strain have reduced ….. AND my right eye looks straighter in the socket rather than drifting to the side. He’s now finding out more about Amblyoplay to recommend it to other patients – so hopefully a good result for the Amblyoplay team too.THANK YOU TO THE AMBLYOPLAY TEAM FOR IMPROVING MY LIFE.
AmblyoPlay is a bright and fun program that demonstrates a great deal of research and consideration in its design. The games are varied and entertaining. My daughter struggled at first to figure some of them out, which led to some frustration. However, she now does well with them and stays focused throughout her sessions. We found it helpful to play a podcast or music while she does it to also keep her engaged. It's hard to tell fully how this has helped her vision, but we can see improvement and look forward to seeing what the eye doctor will say when she is done!
