CCTF Children Amblyopia Special Fund

    Weak-sightedness (Amblyopia) has been a common health problem among the Chinese children. About 2,000,000 children in China are suffer from Amblyopia. Due to economic strains and other factors, the weak-sighted children. Particularly in poor areas of the country in particular are facing more difficult and serious situations. These children are not only weak-sighted, but also lack functions of having balanced and three-dimensional view of things. All these will have negative influences on the healthy advancement of the children, on their study and normal life, on their physical and psychological development, on their future destiny and on the life-long misery to the lives of these unfortunate children. Most importantly, the best period of treatment of the weak-sighted children is when they are very young. Pre-school weak-sighted children can be easily and ccessfully treated with proper methods. The maximum age of effective treatment of weak-sightedness is 13. With the increase of age, the treatment will

become more and more difficult and ineffective. Unfortunately, countless children were deprived of the best chance of recovery due to lack of parents¡¯ care and economic support. There is still huge need from poor children to receive free-of-charge treatment. In recognition of the national eye care day, on June 6, 2002, China Children and Teenagers¡¯ Fund set up a specialized fund to provide children of weak-sightedness with best-quality and no-charge treatment.
