Recent work has transformed our ideas about the neural mechanisms, behavioral
consequences and effective therapies for amblyopia. Since the 1700′ s, the clinical …

Stereopsis provides us with a vivid impression of the depth and distance of objects in our 3-
dimensional world. Stereopsis is important for a number of everyday visual tasks, including …

The gold-standard treatment for childhood amblyopia remains patching or penalizing the
fellow eye, resulting in an average of about a one line (0.1 logMAR) improvement in visual …

Purpose: To test the amblyopic suppression at mid to low spatial frequencies when
compensating for signal attenuation. Methods: Eight amblyopes with (n= 5) or without (n= 3) …

Technological advances in recent decades have allowed us to measure both the information
available to the visual system in the natural environment and the rich array of behaviors that …

Amblyopia is a sensory developmental disorder affecting as many as 4% of children around
the world. While clinically identified as a reduction in visual acuity and disrupted binocular …

Amblyopia is a monocular or binocular reduction in visual acuity that results from prolonged
visual deprivation in the early years of life. It is second only to refractive error as a cause of …

Purpose: Dichoptic training is becoming a popular tool in amblyopia treatment. Here we
investigated the effects of dichoptic demasking training in children with amblyopia who …

In amblyopia, abnormal visual experience during development leads to an enduring loss of
visual acuity in adulthood. Physiological studies in animal models suggest that intracortical …

Dichoptic movie viewing has been shown to significantly improve visual acuity in amblyopia
in children. Moreover, short‐term occlusion of the amblyopic eye can transiently increase its …
