Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: In order to be eligible to participate in this study, a patient must meet the following criteria:;Children cooperative for OCT examination. The refraction error must be within the range of -20 to +20 diopters due to limitations of the OCT device.;Untreated strabismic and anisometropic amblyopes: Within the age range of three to six years. With at least a two line visual acuity difference between the amblyopic and the fellow eye. Teated strabismic and anisometropic amblyopes: Within the age range of seven to twelve years. With equal (1.0 snellen) or nearly equal visual acuity, no more than one line difference. With at least a two line visual acuity difference between the amblyopic and the fellow eye before treatment. Treated as well as untreated anisometropic amblyopes need to have a difference in refraction error of at least 1 diopter spherical and/or 1 diopter astigmatic difference. ;Age matched controls: Are orthotropic or have a slight phoria on cover testing with quick recovery Have a similar refraction error, spherical and/or astigmatism of no more than 0,75 diopters.

MeasureTime frame
H*1a: There is no difference in the MT of treated and untreated patients and the fellow eye of the treated patient with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia. H*1b: There is no difference in the peripapillary RNFL of treated and untreated patients and the fellow eye of the treated patient with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia. H*2a: There is no difference in the MT of untreated patients with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia compared to the MT of their fellow eye and healthy right eyes. H*2b: There is no difference in the peripapillary RNFLT of untreated patients with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia compared to the peripapillary RNFLT of their fellow eye and healthy right eyes. H*3a: The macula of untreated patients with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia is thicker than the macula of their fellow eye and healthy right eyes. H*3b: The peripapillary RNFL of untreated patients with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia is thicker than the peripapillary RNFL of their fellow eye and healthy right eyes. H*4a: The peripapillary RNFL of the fellow eye in untreated and treated patients with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia is thicker than the peripapillary RNFL of healthy right eyes. H*4b: The macula of the fellow eye in untreated and treated patients with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia is thicker than the macula of healthy right eyes.
