B)Children
C)Patients with astigmatism
D)The elderly

Accepted Answer

Amblyopia, also known as "lazy eye," is most commonly diagnosed in children during early childhood when the eye and brain are still developing. It occurs when the brain favors one eye over the other, leading to poor vision in the other eye. Early detection and treatment are essential to prevent lifelong vision impairment.
