Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that your friend is diagnosed with anisometropic ambylopia because of unequal refractive error.
I can understand your concern but unfortunately there is no effective treatment in this age group.
Ambylopia can be treated effectively up to the age of 10-12 years.
Since he is 23 years now no effective treatment is available.

Thank you
