Amblyopia is the most common cause of monocular visual loss in children, affecting 1.3%–
3.6% of children. Current treatments are effective in reducing the visual acuity deficit but …

Amblyopia is a neuro-developmental disorder of the visual cortex that arises from abnormal
visual experience early in life. Amblyopia is clinically important because it is a major cause …

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

There is growing evidence that abnormal binocular interactions play a key role in amblyopia.
In particular, stronger suppression of the amblyopic eye has been associated with poorer …

Importance Fellow eye patching has long been the standard treatment for amblyopia, but it
does not always restore 20/20 vision or teach the eyes to work together. Amblyopia can be …

Previous studies have employed different experimental approaches to enhance visual
function in adults with amblyopia including perceptual learning, videogame play, and …

Background Recent experimental evidence supports a role for binocular visual experience
in the treatment of amblyopia. The purpose of this study was to determine whether repeated …

Purpose: The present treatments for amblyopia are predominately monocular aiming to
improve the vision in the amblyopic eye through either patching of the fellow fixing eye or …

The amblyopic visual system was once considered to be structurally monocular. However, it
now evident that the capacity for binocular vision is present in many observers with …

Purpose.: This study had three main goals: to assess the degree of suppression in patients
with strabismic, anisometropic, and mixed amblyopia; to establish the relationship between …
