I have recently noticed that one of my eyes is at a slightly different angle to the other, and that the vision in this eye is now blurred. I suspect that it may be a case of 'Lazy Eye'
Is it a permanent problem, or can it be cured somehow?

This is a term used to describe poor vision in the absence of any ocular pathology. You often hear amblyopia referred to as "lazy eye." This is usually a problem of childhood due to a suppression of one eye. If the two eyes are sending confusing messages to the brain, the brain will favor the better eye and the other eye goes into disuse. One eye may send a different message to the brain because it is not pointing straight (Strabismus) or perhaps the size or shapes of the two eyes were different. To correct this problem, eyeglasses, eye exercises and patching of the better eye are recommended in order to work the weaker eye and improve its function.
