RESUMO
Amblyopia affects development of children's monocular vision and binocular function and becomes a largely intractable problem with increasing aging. This study is to investigate the binocular function and evaluate efficacy of digital therapy in children 8-13 years of age with anisometropic amblyopia. The patients in the digital therapy group performed the training with the digital amblyopia therapeutic software. The visual acuity and binocular function (perceptual eye position [PEP], suppression, and stereopsis) were examined at the first visit and 3-month post-treatment. Twenty-three cases in the control group and 25 cases in the digital therapy group were enrolled. The results revealed that 3-month digital therapy can effectively improve corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and improve the binocular function, including PEP, suppression, and second-order stereopsis in children with anisometropic amblyopia, 8-13 years of age. Digital therapy for amblyopia can effectively improve monocular CDVA of amblyopic eyes and binocular function in older children with anisometropic amblyopia.
