RESULTS: The corrected vision in RGP group was obviously better than that in control group during the same time. The therapeutic efficacy in RGP group was better than that in frame glasses group, without serious complications at 6mo after treatment.
CONCLUSlON: RGP groups could get better corrected visual acuity. lt is safe and effective to improve corrected vision for refractoriness amblyopia patients.
