The relationship between stereopsis and visual acuity after occlusion therapy for amblyopia 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
PURPOSE: To investigate the relationship between visual acuity (VA) and stereoacuity after occlusion therapy in patients with various types of amblyopia. DESIGN: Retrospective noncomparative case series. PARTICIPANTS: Sixty-one children with amblyopia caused by anisometropia with no strabismus (26 children), small angle (=8 prism diopters) or intermittent strabismus (20), or both (15). METHODS: All were treated with occlusion therapy. Visual acuity and near stereopsis using the Titmus test (Stereo Optical Inc., Chicago, IL) were measured at each clinic visit. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The change in near stereopsis relative to distance VA after occlusion therapy. RESULTS: Mean age at initiation of therapy was 5.1 years (range = 3.5-8) and mean follow-up 52.3 weeks (range = 13-192). Mean duration of occlusion was 36 weeks (range = 12-102). After occlusion treatment, mean VA of all children improved from 0.43 to 0.78 (P<0.0001), whereas mean stereoacuity improved from 1167.4 seconds of arc to 101 (P<0.0001). By the last visit, 85.2% (52 of 61) of patients demonstrated at least 2 lines of improvement in VA. There was a significant linear relationship between VA and stereoacuity (P<0.001). The 26 anisometropic patients without strabismus enjoyed improvement in VA and stereopsis (P<0.0001) similar to that of the 35 with small-angle or intermittent strabismus (P<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: When employing occlusion therapy for amblyopia (due to anisometropia, small-angle or intermittent strabismus, or a combination), as VA improves, stereopsis generally also improves. 相似文献

Aim To identify factors that predict which children with amblyopia are at greatest risk of regression of visual acuity (VA) following
the cessation of occlusion therapy.
Method A retrospective analysis was performed of 182 children (mean age at cessation of treatment; 5.9±1.6 years) who had undergone
occlusion therapy for unilateral amblyopia, and had been followed up at least once within 15 months of cessation. Statistical
analysis was used to identify whether change in VA following treatment cessation had any association with various factors,
including the child’s age, type of amblyopia, degree of anisometropia, initial severity of amblyopia, binocular vision status,
length and dose of occlusion therapy, and VA response to treatment.
Results At 1 year, follow-up from treatment cessation, children with “mixed” amblyopia (both anisometropia and strabismus) demonstrated
significantly (p=0.03) greater deterioration in VA (0.11±0.11 log units) than children with only anisometropia (0.02±0.08 log
units) or only strabismus (0.05±0.10 log units). However, none of the other factors investigated were found to be significant
predictors.
Conclusion This study supports previous research that it is possible to identify those children most at risk of deterioration in VA following
cessation of occlusion therapy. The presence of mixed amblyopia was the only risk factor identified in this study. Management
of amblyopia should take this into account, with a more intensive follow-up recommended for those with both anisometropia
and strabismus (mixed) amblyopia. 相似文献

AIM: To study the effects of supervised inpatient occlusion treatment for amblyopia in children who had failed to respond to outpatient treatment. METHODS: A retrospective study of 39 children admitted to a paediatric ophthalmic ward for 5 days of supervised intensive occlusion therapy having previously failed to respond to outpatient occlusion. Visual acuity of amblyopic and fellow eyes was recorded at each clinic visit before admission, daily during admission, and at each outpatient visit after discharge. RESULTS: There was no significant overall improvement in visual acuity during a mean of 9 months of attempted outpatient occlusion before admission. During the 5 days of admission 26 children (67%) gained at least one line of acuity in their amblyopic eye and five (13%) gained three or more lines (mean gain 1.03 Snellen lines). The acuities of both the amblyopic and fellow eyes subsequently improved with continuing part time patching as an outpatient, including in nine of the children who did not respond during admission. At the last recorded visit, at a median time of 14 months after discharge, 13 (33%) of the patients had an acuity of at least 6/12 in their amblyopic eye. CONCLUSIONS: The acuity of amblyopic eyes did not improve without effective treatment. Subsequent supervised inpatient occlusion therapy was effective in the majority of the children. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Reduced visual acuity and deficient binocularity are well-known symptoms of amblyopia. Distortions of visual space perception were reported more recently in strabismic amblyopia. This study investigated whether strabismus surgery and occlusion therapy have an influence on these deficits in amblyopic children. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two aspects of vertical alignment of amblyopic eyes, namely spatial distortion and spatial uncertainty, were investigated prospectively in 13 children (mean age 6 years 9 months) before and after strabismus surgery and in 12 children (mean age 6 years 11 months) during 6 months of occlusion therapy. RESULTS: A different impact of the two types of therapeutic intervention was observed: a slight (statistically not significant) increase of uncertainty was the only change noticed postoperatively after 1 week, spatial distortions were not affected. During occlusion treatment, both clear shifts of alignment and a decrease of uncertainty occurred. CONCLUSIONS: The geometry of visual space of amblyopic children showed modifications due to altered visual experience during treatment, most obviously during occlusion therapy. These changes are evidence for unknown features of plasticity of the amblyopic visual system initiated by treatment. 相似文献

Long-term follow-up of occlusion therapy in amblyopia 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the results of occlusion therapy for amblyopia are maintained into adulthood. DESIGN: Prospective, observational case series. PARTICIPANTS: Fifty-four patients, who were successfully treated in childhood for unilateral amblyopia by occlusion, were followed up to the age of 9 years, were evaluated in 1984 for long-term results 6.4 years on average after cessation of treatment, and accepted our invitation for reevaluation in 1999. METHODS: All patients were given a complete eye examination. The visual acuity (VA) was measured. RESULTS: The average period of follow-up was 21.5 years (range, 17.2-25.1 years). The mean age at the most recent examination was 29.0 +/- 2.1 years (range, 25.1-34). At this examination, a best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/40 or better was achieved by 72.3% of the patients. The mean BCVA was 20/35 (20/25-20/70) at the end of occlusion therapy, 20/45 (20/20-20/300) in 1984, and 20/34 (20/15-20/100) at the present examination. Relative to the results at the end of therapy, BCVA at the present examination was maintained or improved in 66.7% of the patients. Relative to 1984, the BCVA in 1999 was maintained or improved in 87% of the patients. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Visual acuity. CONCLUSION: Comparative evaluation of BCVA at a long-term follow-up examination, performed 21.5 years on average after cessation of occlusion therapy, showed that VA was maintained or improved in two thirds of patients who had been successfully treated by occlusion for unilateral amblyopia in childhood. 相似文献

AIM/BACKGROUND--This study aimed to determine the feasibility of objective compliance monitoring of amblyopia therapy in clinical research. Occlusion has been the mainstay of amblyopia therapy for over 250 years, yet it has never been subjected to rigorous evaluation. Treatment regimens range arbitrarily from a few minutes to most of the waking hours of the day. Compliance is problematic and as, hitherto, accurate objective monitoring has been impossible it is not known how much occlusion is required to effect an improvement in vision. METHODS--An occlusion dose monitor (ODM) has been developed. The ODM consists of a modified occlusion patch and a miniature battery driven datalogger which periodically monitors patch skin contact. The patch is a standard disposable item with two miniature electrocardiogram electrodes attached to its undersurface. The datalogger comprises a high speed static RAM and a clock driven address counter. Data are retrieved using an IBM PC/AT computer. Fifteen child amblyopes were randomly allocated unilateral occlusion of 1, 4, or 8 hours per day for 4 weeks. Owing to data loss, presumed because of accumulation and discharge of static electricity, an additional child was included in the 8 hour group. Outcome measures were objective (ODM) and subjective (diary) compliance with treatment, logMAR visual acuity, and contrast sensitivity. RESULTS--Objective monitoring of occlusion is technically feasible and clinically informative. CONCLUSION--Objective monitoring of occlusion has opened up new research opportunities which, it is hoped, will enable the dose-effect relation of occlusion therapy in the various types of amblyopia to be investigated objectively, and facilitate the design of effective therapeutic regimens. 相似文献

Functional visual loss 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
H S Thompson 《American journal of ophthalmology》1985,100(1):209-213
Patients with functional loss of visual acuity or visual fields range from the "deliberate malingerer" to the "suggestible innocent." Between these extremes are patients with varying mixtures of fraud and suggestibility. These patients do not, as a rule, have psychiatric disease and do not need to see a psychiatrist. The ophthalmologist must be able to control frustration with these patients to prove that the patient has better visual fields and visual acuity than admitted to, and so that he can perform a careful, dispassionate examination to establish that no organic disease is present. This examination makes it possible to offer believable reassurance to the patient. Simple reassurance seems to be effective therapy. 相似文献

Functional visual loss is a common problem encountered in practice. It must be recognized that this problem occurs in patients who have organic illness. Manual perimetry is the most effective method for evaluating functional visual loss, and the presence of a central scotoma in a functional visual field strongly suggests that organic pathology is present.Neuropsychological and psychiatric intervention can be useful in treating these patients. 相似文献

Electronically measured compliance with occlusion therapy for amblyopia is related to visual acuity increase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Sjoukje E. Loudon Jan-Roelof Polling Huibert J. Simonsz 《Albrecht von Graefes Archiv fur klinische und experimentelle Ophthalmologie》2003,241(3):176-180
PURPOSE: We set out to determine whether the children who have low compliance (measured electronically) with occlusion therapy for amblyopia are those with insufficient increase of visual acuity. METHODS: In 14 newly identified amblyopic children (mean age 4.3+/-1.9 years), compliance was measured electronically over a period of 1 week, 6 months after the start of occlusion therapy. Compliance was measured with an Occlusion Dose Monitor (ODM). The measurements took place during planned domiciliary visits. The children were diagnosed with anisometropia (n=5), strabismus (n=4) and anisometropia and strabismus (n=5). Compliance was expressed in percentages of the electronically registered time compared with the prescribed occlusion time. Satisfactory acuity increase following 6 months of occlusion therapy was defined on reaching any of the following criteria: acuity increase expressed as a ratio between acuity of the amblyopic eye and acuity of the good eye of more than 0.75, acuity of the amblyopic eye exceeding 0.5 as measured on the E-Chart or Landolt-C, or three LogMAR lines of increase in acuity. RESULTS: Measured compliance averaged 80% in the eight children who had a satisfactory acuity increase and 34% in the six children who had an unsatisfactory visual acuity increase. Children with low acuity increase had statistically significantly lower compliance (P=0.038). CONCLUSION: The general assumption among orthoptists, that compliance with occlusion therapy for amblyopia is low in children with insufficient acuity increase, has been validated by electronic, objective means. 相似文献

Aim:
To compare the efficacy of part-time versus full-time occlusion for treatment of amblyopia in children aged 7-12 years.Materials and Methods:
Prospective interventional case series. One hundred children between 7-12 years of age with anisometropic (57), strabismic (25) and mixed (18) unilateral amblyopia were randomized (simple randomization) into four groups (25 each) to receive two hours, four hours, six hours or full-time occlusion therapy. Children were regularly followed up at six-weekly intervals for a minimum of three visits.Statistical Analysis:
Intragroup visual improvement was analyzed using paired t-test while intergroup comparisons were done using ANOVA and unpaired t-test.Results:
All four groups showed significant visual improvement after 18 weeks of occlusion therapy (P<0.001). Seventy-three (73%) of the total 100 eyes responded to amblyopia therapy with 11 eyes (44%), 17 eyes (68%), 22 eyes (88%) and 23 eyes (92%) being amblyopia responders in the four groups respectively, with the least number of responders in the two hours group. In mild to moderate amblyopia (vision 20/30 to 20/80), there was no significant difference in visual outcome among the four groups (P=0.083). However, in severe amblyopia (vision 20/100 or worse), six hours (P=0.048) and full-time occlusion (P=0.027) treatment were significantly more effective than two hours occlusion.Conclusion:
All grades of part-time occlusion are comparable to full-time occlusion in effectiveness of treatment for mild to moderate amblyopia in children between 7-12 years of age unlike in severe amblyopia, where six hours and full-time occlusion were more effective than two hours occlusion therapy. 相似文献16.

Functional visual loss in children 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Twenty-three children (16 girls, 7 boys, aged 6-17 years) who presented with the specific complaint of blurred vision were diagnosed as having functional visual loss. Symptoms were intermittent in seven children. Associated signs and symptoms were common and included headaches, visual field loss, diplopia, micropsia, voluntary nystagmus, and spasm of the near reflex. Our treatment consisted of reassurance and follow-up. Resolution of symptoms occurred within 24 hours in one third and within two months in three-quarters of our patients. Parental support and encouragement were associated with more rapid resolution. Recurrence of symptoms and late onset of somatic complaints were rare. Conflicts related to family or school environment were common. Four children had been sexually or physically abused. Our experience suggests that, regardless of the duration or severity of symptoms, functional visual loss in children can usually be treated with reassurance. We believe that psychiatric referral is not necessary for most patients. Sexual or physical abuse should be considered as a possible predisposing factor. 相似文献
