Abstract

Amblyopia is a common visual disorder in children characterized by a reduction in visual acuity in one or both eyes, The primary treatment for amblyopia is occlusion, where the stronger eye is occluded, forcing the weaker eye to be used and improve its visual function.
To study changes in macular vessel density, VA, stereopsis, and CS in children with amblyopia over a 12-month period
Prospective observational study included 30 children with amblyopia underwent occlusion. OCTA was utilized to evaluate macular vessel density, while VA, stereopsis, and CS were measured as secondary outcomes.
The findings revealed a significant improvement in macular vessel density following occlusion over the course of the study period. Improvements in VA, stereopsis, and CS were observed. These improvements were most pronounced in the early stages of treatment
occlusion promise as a viable intervention for improving macular vessel density and overall visual outcomes in pediatric patients with amblyopia.
