Accommodative Performance of Children With Unilateral Amblyopia [Eye Movements, Strabismus, Amblyopia, and Neuro-Ophthalmology]

Conclusions. When viewing monocularly, children with unilateral amblyopia had greater mean accommodative errors in their amblyopic eyes than in their nonamblyopic eyes, and when compared with control subjects. This could lead to unintended retinal image defocus during patching therapy for amblyopia.
