Factors predicting regression of visual acuity following successful treatment of anisometropic amblyopia.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To identify factors associated with visual acuity regression following successful treatment of anisometropic amblyopia.

Design and method

This was a retrospective cohort study. Database records for 100 and 61 children with anisometropic amblyopia who met at least one criterion for successful treatment proposed by the Pediatric Eye Disease Investigator Group (PEDIG) and had at least 1 year of follow-up data available after the criterion was met were analyzed.
