Two groups of monocular strabismic patients were followed-up by means of both PL and orthoptic examinations. The first group underwent a full-day occlusion except 1 to 4 hours; the second was occluded less than 4 hours per day. The first treatment regimen proved to be faster in getting pseudo-isoacuity and alternating fixation, but was followed by relative occlusion amblyopia and/or shifting of the dominant eye in three patients. PL techniques proved to be particularly useful in strictly monitoring these patients.

Preferential looking techniques yield important information in strabismic amblyopia follow-up.

Abstract

Two groups of monocular strabismic patients were followed-up by means of both PL and orthoptic examinations. The first group underwent a full-day occlusion except 1 to 4 hours; the second was occluded less than 4 hours per day. The first treatment regimen proved to be faster in getting pseudo-isoacuity and alternating fixation, but was followed by relative occlusion amblyopia and/or shifting of the dominant eye in three patients. PL techniques proved to be particularly useful in strictly monitoring these patients.
