| Summary: |
Purpose: The
results of using laser stimulation of the macula in the
treatment of amblyopia in children with central and
excentric fixation.
Materials and methods: Laser stimulation of
macula was carried out in two groups of children aged 5
to 11 years. In the first group there were 30 children
with central fixation. In the second group there were 30
children with excentric fixation. The period of
observation was 3 years. The laser stimulation was
carried out in the cycle of 10 days every 3 or 6 months.
During the stimulation were used another methods of
amblyopia treatment.
Results: In the group of children with central
fixation visual acuity was improved by 0.3-0.7 and it
was a better result than in group of children with
excentric fixation where the visual acuity was improved
by 0.0-0.2.
Conclusions: The results of amblyopia treatment
with laser stimulation of the macula are better in group
of children with central fixation than in group of
children with excentric fixation. |
