Abstract:
AIM:To evaluate the therapeutic effects of the fine sight training with the smartphones and pads on hyperopia amblyopia of children.METHODS:One hundred and twenty children (120 eyes) with hyperopia amblyopia were randomly divided into two groups in this prospective study.All the children in these two groups received the basic treatments of spectacle correction,penalization therapy and amblyopia trainings.The treatments of red-light blinking and grating as well as traditional fine sight training were used for the children in the control group.However,the smartphones and pads were applied instead of the traditional performances for the fine sight training in the experimental group.Best corrected visual acuity of every child was tested for every 3mo,to observe the time for the visual improvement and efficacy.RESULTS:In comparison with the control group,significant shorter time (80.54 ± 30.87d,P＜ 0.05) for promoted one line of LogMAR visual acuity and average treatment time (15.34±7.24mo,P＜0.05) were harvested in the experimental group.The efficacy in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group (Z=-2.37,P=0.02).CONCLUSION:The fine sight training with the smartphones and pads can improve vison faster than traditional methods and decrease the time of therapy in children with hyperopia amblyopia,thus providing a new strategy for the treatment of hyperopia amblyopia.
