There is no denying that lazy eyes will get worse as aging. Lazy eyes usually develops when one eye has much better focus than the other one. When one is nearsighted or suffers from astigmatism in one eye, then he is likely to have lazy eyes. In addition, an ocular misalignment, strabismus can give rise to lazy eyes because when one eye turns inward or outward, one cannot focus the eyes on an object, resulting in double vision; under such circumstances, the brain chooses to ignore the image from the deviated eye so that the vision becomes worse in that eye. Also, a cataract or a small amount of blood in the back of the eye can lead to see uncleanly.
