Abstract :

This study conducted to compare the efficacy of the part time occlusion in moderate refractive amblyopia, at Govt. Regional Eye Hospital, Visakhapatnam. Materials and methods: 24 eyes of refractive amblyopia with moderate refractive error from 23 patients are selected for the study during the period of one year and followed up to 2 ½ years . The amblyopic eyes were divided in to two groups One group treated with occlusion for one hour, and other other group treated with 6 hours occlusion. Resulsts: The effect and visual improvement of hour occlusion is equally effective in moderate refractive amblyopia, compared to 6 hours occlusion. Conclusions: One hour occlusion is effective in moderate refractive amblyopia, and the complications of occlusion therapy are minimal in this short term occlusion.
