Within the last five years, there have been a number of exciting new advances in our
knowledge and understanding of amblyopia. This article reviews recent psychophysical …

Amblyopia is usually defined as a deficit in optotype (Snellen) acuity with no detectable
organic cause. We asked whether this visual abnormality is completely characterized by the …

Amblyopia is a developmental disorder of pattern vision. After surgical creation of esotropic
strabismus in the first weeks of life or after wearing− 10 diopter contact lenses in one eye to …

When a vernier target is flanked by a pair of optimally positioned flanks, offset discrimination
is strongly degraded. Spatial interference with vernier acuity was studied in each eye of …

To further our understanding of the cortical deficit in strabismic amblyopia, we measured,
compared and mapped functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) activation between …

Clinically different forms of amblyopia share as common denominators an inability to form
well-defined and focused images in one or both eyes and, in the case of unilateral …

The most frequent cause of visual loss in childhood is functional amblyopia, an abnormality
of visual acuity usually associated with either anisometropia (unequal refractive errors) or …

To investigate amblyopic contrast vision at threshold and above we performed pedestal-
masking (contrast discrimination) experiments with a group of eight strabismic amblyopes …

Forty-four children aged 2-9 years with strabismic and anisometropic amblyopia were
prospectively followed up during amblyopia treatment. The efficacy of optimised treatment in …

Two gratings composed of lines were displayed one above the other, and the vernier
threshold was measured as a function of spatial frequency and vertical separation between …
