This is more speculative than anything: have you tried eye-patching the good eye to force your brain into being trained to use the bad one? Specifically for a long period of time (months).
- kragen 9y agoYes, I did that 12 hours a day for five years in my early childhood, starting at 2 years old. Before that, I couldn't see out of my left eye at all.

- berdon 9y agoI wonder if you would have better results if you did it 100% of the time. I wonder if training was hindered simply because other neural pathways would still "win" after the 12 hours each day. But all of this speculation is centered around neural growth and formation - I have no idea what could have happened because of lack of use during development (ie. atrophy, etc).
