Eye patching is used in the orthoptic management [2] of children at risk of lazy eye (), especially strabismic or anisometropic [3] amblyopia.

The compound eyes of the arthropods are composed of many simple facets which, depending on anatomical detail, may give either a single pixelated image or multiple images per eye. Each sensor has its own lens and photosensitive cell(s). Some eyes have up to 28,000 such sensors arranged hexagonally, which can give a full 360° field of vision.
A less politicized argument is that in specific professions (teaching), a ban on "veils" is justified since face-to-face communication and eye contact are required.
