Abstract
|
|
|
Amblyopia affecting approximately three per cent of the population can be defined as a developmental loss of visual acuity with no detectable pathology of the visual pathway. Without adequate stimuli, the visual system continuously develops amblyopia during the period of neural plasticity. Visual sensory in amblyopia is abnormal in terms of low visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and spatial distortion, as well as oculomotor abnormalities such as saccadic and pursuit movements.
Therefore, it should be considered that the most effective intervention is applied to amblyopic eye depending on factors influencing final outcome in amblyopia treatment.
