Age
4 Years to 12 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Amblyopic patients (visual difference in the eyes > 0.1 logMAR or visual acuity <0.1 logMAR in the lazy eye) with anisometropia, anisometropia in connection with a strabism, or amblyopic patients with a strabism are included in the study. It is required that these patients are at least 4 years old.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: No patients with other ophthalmological pre-existing diseases and no patients with deprivation amblyopia (amblyopia of organic cause) can be included in the study. Patients with proven learning disabilities must also be excluded. Patients with known epilepsy must also be excluded from Caterna visual training.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1.Effectiveness of amblyopia treatment with occlusion + FAVAS [ Time Frame: 6 months ] in amblyopic eyes in far vision single optical characters compared to occlusion alone

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
2. Effectiveness of amblyopia treatment with occlusion + FAVAS [ Time Frame: 6 months ] amblyopic eyes increase in near vision by rows of optical characters compared to occlusion alone 3. Pre-/post differences in logarithmic steps (dB) of the far visual acuity assessed by single optical characters for the preceding occlusion alone normalized by recalculation in relation to a span of 6 months versus for the computer training combined with occlusion
