Abstract
This article describes the definitions of amblyopia appearing in the literature and discusses how exacly they reflect modern ideas about the disease. Based on the results of the analysis, it is recommended not to use the widespread expression “lazy eye” as a synonym for amblyopia, since it distorts the essence of this disease. Two alternative ways of searching for a modern correct definition of amblyopia are proposed. Key words: correct definition of amblyopia, concept of amblyopic component, lazy eye syndrome
