AI Thread Summary
Concerns about unusual eye reflections in children are raised, particularly regarding the potential link to cancer, though such cases are rare after age one. The discussion highlights the importance of consulting a medical professional for proper evaluation rather than relying on online information. Amblyopia is mentioned as a possible condition related to poor vision in one eye, but the conversation emphasizes that medical advice should come from a qualified doctor.

Is this something to be worried about? I know it can be a sign of cancer in children but its very uncommon even above the age of 1. I have always had bad vision in the white-reflecting eye (I think this might be amblyopia?). After searching around the internet I found a few other people with the same thing but no good explanation.
