Amblyopia characterization, treatment, and prophylaxis

K Simons - Survey of ophthalmology, 2005 - Elsevier
Amblyopia has a 1.6–3.6% prevalence, higher in the medically underserved. It is more

strabismus, specifically to determine whether either amblyopia or strabismus interfered with …

Long-term motor and sensory outcomes after early surgery for infantile esotropia

EE Birch, DR Stager Sr - Journal of American Association for Pediatric …, 2006 - Elsevier
PURPOSE: The proper timing of surgery for infantile esotropia remains controversial. Early
surgery may yield better sensory outcomes whereas later surgery may result in better …
