Purpose:
|
The management of anisometropic amblyopia in children remains a challenge to pediatric ophthalmologists. The aim of this study is to determine outcomes of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for correcting amblyopiogenic refractive errors in children who are noncompliant for conventional therapies.
|
|
Methods:
|
Twelve children, 6 to 17 years old, 7 with anisohypropic amblyopia, 3 with anisomyopia and 2 with astigmatic amblyopia that were noncompliant with conventional therapy with glasses or contact lenses. The examination included cycloplegic refraction, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), biomicroscopy grading of postoperative haze, binocular vision (BV), and stereopsis were performed preoperatively and 1,3,6,12 month postopratively.
|
|
Results:
|
All 3 myopic, 2 astigmatic and 5 of 7 hyperopic patients reached to target SE. Among 7 hyperopic groups 2 patients SE were within 3 diopter of target.The most change was seen in astigmatism group that V.A reach to 10/10 and the least change were seen in hyoeropic group.
In most of the patients stereopsis was improved.There isn't any case of visually significant haze.
|
|
Conclusion:
|
PRK could have good results in amblyoptherapy, also it is safe and helpful in anisometropic amblyopia.
