RGD uses the Human Disease Ontology (DO, https://disease-ontology.org/) for disease curation across species. RGD automatically downloads each new release of the ontology on a monthly basis. Some additional terms which are required for RGD's curation purposes but are not currently covered in the official version of DO have been added. As corresponding terms are added to DO, these custom terms are retired and the DO terms substituted in existing annotations and subsequently used for curation.
An eye disease that is characterized by poor vision in one eye resulting from the brain failing to process inputs from one eye and over time favors the other eye. The weaker or lazy eye often wanders inward or outward. (DO)
