Patching Pirates
This page provides information about amblyopia (lazy eye) and is an app for apple devices in the form of a pirate game. The aim of the app is to assist you and your child in the patching process. A calendar allows you to record how many hours of patching you have completed that day. You earn gold coins for patching which in turn allows you to buy accessories for your pirate avatar.
