PURPOSE To follow the development of strabismic amblyopia longitudinally by comparing mean amplitudes and the visual spatial resolving ability of retinal and cortical pattern responses at various stages of postnatal development in unilateral iatrogenic convergent strabismic kittens. METHODS Surgery to produce iatrogenic convergent strabismus was performed on 20 kittens at 3 weeks of age; thre...

We show that the previously reported orientation deficit in amblyopia (Skottun, B. C., Bradley, A., & Freeman, R. D. (1986). Orientation discrimination in amblyopia. Investigative Ophthalmology and Visual Science, 30, 532-537) also occurs for arrays of randomly positioned Gabor micropatterns for which explanations based on either neural disarray or local neural interactions would not hold. Furt...

Introduction: Amblyopia significantly contributes to low vision and blindness in adults an Indonesian rural setting. The treatment of amblyopia, particularly anisometropic and/or strabismic has long been challenging for many clinicians. This study aims report a promising result refractive correction, occlusion therapy, oral citicoline on mixed amblyopia with optic nerve hypoplasia adult patient...

The extent of motion processing deficits and M/dorsal pathway involvement in amblyopia is unclear. Fellow eye performance was assessed in amblyopic children for motion-defined (MD) form, global motion, and maximum displacement (Dmax) tasks. Group performance on MD form was significantly worse in amblyopic children than in control children. Global motion deficits were significantly related to re...

Neurologically normal observers show a consistent leftward bias when asked to bisect a horizontal line ("pseudoneglect"). In this study, we found that subjects with strabismic and strabismic-anisometropic amblyopia show a consistent rightward bias ("minineglect") in a line bisection task. The bias was seen in both eyes, but affected more strongly the amblyopic eye. Purely anisometropic amblyope...

This study compared the corneal and total higher order aberrations between the fellow eyes in monocular amblyopia. Nineteen amblyopic subjects (8 refractive and 11 strabismic) (mean age 30 ± 11 years) were recruited. A range of biometric and optical measurements were collected from the amblyopic and non-amblyopic eye including; axial length, corneal topography and total higher order aberrations...

BACKGROUND Adults with amblyopia ('lazy eye'), long-standing strabismus (ocular misalignment) or both typically do not experience visual symptoms because the signal from weaker eye is given less weight than the signal from its fellow. Here we examine the contribution of the weaker eye of individuals with strabismus and amblyopia with both eyes open and with the deviating eye in its anomalous mo...

. To investigate the effect of anisometropic and strabismic amblyopia on the nerve fiber layer thickness. This cross-sectional study was done on 54 amblyopic subjects, equally in both strabismic and anisometropic groups. The thickness otonerve fiber layer measured in superior, inferior, nasal, temporal quadrants and as a whole in both eyes of both groups. The means of thickness were compared in...
