Virtual Reality-Based Game Shows Promise in Treating Adult Amblyopia
Investigators considered the color and size of the game elements and its ability to simulate CAM stimulation in the game’s design.
Amblyopia
Peripheral Stimulation Decreases Spatial Accuracy Beyond the Fovea
Patients with strabismic amblyopia have impairments in eccentricity-dependent and separation-dependent mechanisms.
Amblyopic Saccadic Latency Caused by Attentional, Not Oculomotor Factors
Oculomotor factors are likely not responsible for saccadic latency in individuals with amblyopia.
Increased Dominant Eye Forward Scattering Reduces Binocular Visual Performance
Clinicians should be careful when performing corrections related to presbyopia or amblyopia and emmetropization procedures that can create significant interocular differences, a study cautions.
Childhood Glaucoma Not Primarily Responsible for Poor Visual Acuity
Mean best corrected visual acuity was best in children with juvenile open-angle glaucoma compared with other glaucoma subtypes.
Binocular Game Improves Amblyopic-Eye Visual Acuity After 4 Weeks, Longer Term Efficacy Uncertain
Age and other factors may affect treatment outcomes for young patients with amblyopia and may be lengthy in some children.
Acute-Onset Paralytic Strabismus May Signal Late-Infantile Metachromatic Leukodystrophy
Strabismus preceded gross motor symptoms in a majority of late-infantile MLD cases in which both symptoms developed at similar times.
Functional Connectivity Density Abnormalities Observed in Brain Regions of Children With Strabismus and Amblyopia
Abnormalities may be present in various brain regions of children with some bilateral vision dysfunctions, according to a study.
Combined Vision Therapy, Conventional Treatment Effectively Treats Pediatric Unilateral Refractive Amblyopia
Clinicians have traditionally believed that children older than age 7 are significantly less responsive to amblyopia treatment, according to a report.
iPad Activity Measures Interocular Brightness Disparity, Detects Amblyopia
The device appears more cost effective and accessible than others used to detect amblyopia.
