弱視（Amblyopia）是指因為眼睛和大腦協同運作問題造成的視力失調，但眼睛本身沒有器質性病變，弱視所造成的影響是視力減退。 造成弱視的原因可能是在兒童發育早期，因著疾病影響眼睛的對焦功能。可能是眼睛無法對正、眼球形狀造成不易對焦、一眼因為近視或是遠視使得視力和另外一眼不同，或是受到白內障的影響。因為視力和大腦也有關係，因此若造成弱視的原因去除後，視力不會立刻改善。弱視不容易偵測，因此兒童在四到五歲時建議要接受視力測試。 越早檢查到弱視，其治療的成功率越高。有些兒童的治療只需透過眼鏡即可進行，若是不夠，會設法強迫兒童去使用視力較弱的眼睛，做法可以透過在視力較好的眼睛戴眼罩或是點阿托品。若不進行治療，兒童期的弱視會持續到成年。而有關成年人弱視治療的資訊仍不充份。 弱視一般會在五歲之前發現。成年人中，有1%至5%有弱視的情形。弱視的治療可以改善視力，但一般來說，無法讓視力恢復到完全正常的程度。最早對於弱視的描述出現在十七世紀。弱視會讓人無法成為飛行員或是警察。弱視的英文學名amblyopia源自希臘文的ἀμβλύς（amblys，意思是模糊）以及 ὤψ（ōps，意思是視力）。
