简要总结

This study is designed to answer the question: What if the Intermittent Occlusion (IO-therapy) glasses were prescribed all day (12-hours) in which the total time of treatment only took 4 weeks instead of the current treatment time (4 hours) in which it takes 12 weeks?

Children aged 3- to 8-years with untreated moderate unilateral amblyopia will be enrolled and randomized into 2 groups: 1) Intense 12-hour IO-therapy Group for 4 weeks treatment; or 2) Standard 4-hour IO-therapy glasses Group for 12 weeks treatment.

入选标准

  • The following criteria must be met for the patient to be enrolled in the study:
  • Age 3 to < 8 years
  • Unilateral amblyopia associated with strabismus (comitant or incomitant), anisometropia, or both
  • Criteria for strabismus: At least one of the following criteria must be met:
  • Heterotropia at distance and/or near fixation on examination (with or without spectacles)
  • History of strabismus surgery
  • Documented history of strabismus which is no longer present (which in the judgment of the investigator could have caused amblyopia)
  • Criteria for anisometropia: At least one of the following criteria must be met:
  • >0.50 D difference between eyes in spherical equivalent
  • >0.50 D difference between eyes in astigmatism in any meridian
  • Amblyopic eye has no myopia (> -0.25 D spherical equivalent).
  • Visual acuity, measured in each eye without cycloplegia within 7 days prior to enrollment using the ATS single-surround HOTV letter protocol as follows:
  • Visual acuity in the amblyopic eye between 20/40 and 20/80 inclusive
  • Visual acuity in the sound eye 20/32 or better
  • Inter-eye acuity difference ≥ 2 logMAR lines (i.e., amblyopic eye acuity at least 2 lines worse than sound eye acuity)
  • No previous amblyopia treatment within 6 months.
  • Spectacle correction (if applicable) for measurement of enrollment visual acuity must meet the following criteria and be based on a cycloplegic refraction within 6 months:
  • Requirements for spectacle correction:
  • For patients meeting criteria for only strabismus
  • Hypermetropia if corrected must not be undercorrected by more than +1.50 D spherical equivalent, and the reduction in plus sphere must be symmetric in the two eyes. Otherwise, spectacle correction is at investigator discretion.
  • For patients meeting criteria for anisometropia or combined-mechanism
  • Spherical equivalent must be within 0.50 D of fully correcting the anisometropia
  • Hypermetropia must not be undercorrected by more than +1.50 D spherical equivalent, and reduction in plus must be symmetric in the two eyes
  • Cylinder power in both eyes must be within 0.50 D of fully correcting the astigmatism
  • Cylinder axis in the spectacle lenses in both eyes must be within 6 degrees of the axis of the cycloplegic refraction
  • Spectacles meeting above criteria must be worn either:
  • for 4 weeks immediately prior to enrollment, or
  • until visual acuity in amblyopic eye is stable (defined as two consecutive visual acuity measurements at least 4 weeks apart with no improvement of one line or more)
  • An acuity measurement done any of the following ways may be considered the first of two consecutive measurements:
  • in current glasses,
  • in trial frames with full correction of hypermetropia with cycloplegia, or
  • in new glasses.
  • Wearing optimal spectacle correction for a minimum of 4 weeks at the time of enrollment.
  • Ocular examination within 6 months prior to enrollment.
  • Gestational age > 34 weeks and birth weight > 1500 grams
  • Parent willing to accept randomization
  • Parent willing to be contacted and has access to phone
  • Parent does not anticipate relocation outside area within study period.

排除标准

  • Amblyopic eye has myopia worse than -3.00 D spherical equivalent.
  • Prior intraocular or refractive surgery
  • Ocular pathologies that impact vision
  • Cognitive impairment that prohibits accurate data collection

结局指标

主要结局

  • Stereoacuity Test(4 weeks for the Intense Group and 12 weeks for the Standard Group)
  • Objective Total Treatment Hours(4 weeks for the Intense Group and 12 weeks for the Standard Group)
