Quantitative Measurement of Interocular Suppression in Anisometropic Amblyopia: A Case-Control Study – Corrected Proof
Objective: The aims of this study were to assess (1) the relationship between interocular suppression and visual function in patients with anisometropic amblyopia, (2) whether suppression can be simulated in matched controls using monocular defocus or neutral density filters, (3) the effects of spectacle or rigid gas-permeable contact lens correction on suppression in patients with anisometropic amblyopia, and (4) the relationship between interocular suppression and outcomes of occlusion therapy.Design: Case-control study (aims 1–3) and cohort study (aim 4).Participants: Forty-five participants with anisometropic amblyopia and 45 matched controls (mean age, 8.8 years for both groups).Methods: Interocular suppression was assessed using Bagolini striated (Read more...)
