We present three cases where traditional occlusion therapy with an eye patch proved ineffective for treating amblyopia associated with fusion maldevelopment nystagmus. In these cases, we transitioned to dichoptic therapy using the Occlu-pad, achieving successful outcomes. Eye patch occlusion of the sound eye consistently exacerbated nystagmus, whereas dichoptic treatment did not. Visual acuity improved to 0 (logMAR) in all cases following dichoptic therapy. This approach demonstrates the effectiveness of dichoptic treatment for managing amblyopia in patients with fusion maldevelopment and nystagmus.
我们展示了三例病例,其中传统的眼罩遮盖疗法在治疗与融合发育不良性眼球震颤相关的弱视时被证明无效。在这些病例中,我们转而使用Occlu-pad进行双眼分视治疗,并取得了成功。持续遮盖健眼会使眼球震颤持续加剧,而双眼分视治疗则不会。所有病例在接受双眼分视治疗后视力均提高到了0(logMAR)。这种方法证明了双眼分视治疗在管理融合发育不良和眼球震颤患者弱视方面的有效性。
