Video game developer Ubisoft and a partner firm announced Tuesday the first therapeutic use of a video game to treat amblyopia, also known as "lazy eye," which afflicts mostly children. The ocular disorder involves decreased vision in one eye as the result of a turned eye or because one eye is more powerful than the other. The video game, called "Dig Rush," uses both eyes binocularly to train the brain in order to improve visual acuity, instead of training just the weak eye.
