Binocular iPad Treatment of Amblyopia for Lasting Improvement of Visual Acuity Repeated experience with dichoptic perceptual learning tasks and dichoptic game play have been shown to be effective in improving the visual acuity of amblyopic children and adults.1-4 However, whether the visual acuity gains achieved with binocular treatment are long lasting has not yet been addressed. We examined the durability of visual acuity improvements obtained as a result of binocular iPad game play in childhood amblyopia.

متن کاملA consideration of binocular parameters in the spectacle correction of anisometropic amblyopia: A Case Report
Background: Recent evidence points to the use of spectacles alone in the treatment of anisometropic amblyopia. However, the impact of this treatment on the restoration of binocular vision is often not considered. Case Report: Patient M.Z., aged 7 years, showed 3.5D of anisometropia which was coupled with a best corrected visual acuity of 6/38 in the more hyperopic eye (6/6 in the non-amblyopic ...
