To study the effectiveness of pencil pushups treatment (PPT) for the treatment of convergence insufficiency in a clinical situation.
PPT was prescribed for use at home for 6 weeks for 25 subjects with convergence insufficiency.
Twelve of the subjects returned for follow-up. Seven of 12 (58%) subjects showed a clinically significant improvement in nearpoint of convergence and positive fusional vergence, and 11 of 12 reported improvement in symptoms. Only one subject became asymptomatic.
PPT resulted in some improvement in both objective findings and symptoms for some subjects. Compliance with the recommended home therapy protocol was poor.
研究在临床环境中使用铅笔俯卧撑训练法(PPT)治疗集合不足的有效性。
为25名集合不足的受试者开出处方,让他们在家中进行为期6周的PPT训练。
12名受试者返回接受随访。12名受试者中有7名(58%)在集合近点和正融合性聚散方面有临床显著改善,12名受试者中有11名报告症状有所改善。只有一名受试者无症状。
PPT使部分受试者的客观检查结果和症状都有一定改善。对推荐的家庭治疗方案的依从性较差。
