Spectacle Correction

Background: Micro-esotropia is a small-angle esodeviation typically less than nine prism diopters. Patients with this ocular condition often develop amblyopia due to the presence of a constant unilateral strabismus and an anisometropic refractive error in the deviated eye. Current treatment methods for strabismic and refractive amblyopia include spectacle correction, patching, and vision therapy (VT). Case Summary: A 9-year-old Asian female presented with a constant left primary micro-esotropia with unsteady eccentric fixation, contributing to mild amblyopia and frequent suppression in the left eye. She also had a hyperopic anisometropic refractive error. Combination treatment of in-office VT with short-term patching therapy (two hours per day) was administered, with the goal of improving her binocularity, fixation, and visual acuity. Conclusions: Amblyopia results from binocular dysfunction, therefore monocular patching therapy alone will not improve the underlying issue. VT is necessary to actively treat binocularity and subsequently improve visual acuity, while short-term patching can be used in combination to effectively target monocular accommodation and fixation.
