Perceptual learning with hand – eye coordination as an effective tool for managing amblyopia: A prospective study. Indian Journal of Ophthalmology. 2022 Oct; 70(10): 3630-36331998-36890301-4738http://imsear.searo.who.int/handle/123456789/224627Purpose: Amblyopia is a serious condition resulting in monocular impairment of vision. Although traditional treatment improves vision, we attempted to explore the results of perceptual learning in this study. Methods: This prospective cohort study included all patients with amblyopia who were subjected to perceptual learning. The presenting data on vision, stereopsis and contrast sensitivity were documented in a pretested online format, and the pre? and post?treatment information was compared using descriptive, cross?tabulation and comparative methods on SPSS 2.2. The mean values were obtained, and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The cohort consisted of 47 patients (23 females and 24 males) with a mean age of 14.11 ± 7.13 years. A statistically significant improvement was detected in visual acuity after the perceptual learning session, and the median follow?up period was 17 days. Also, significant improvements were observed in stereopsis but not in the visual outcomes among the age groups. Conclusion: Perceptual learning with hand–eye coordination is an effective method for managing amblyopia. This approach can improve vision in all age groups. However, visual improvement is significantly influenced by ocular alignment.Amblyopiaamblyopia management in elderlyperceptual learningvisual recoveryJournal ArticleIndiaDrashti Netralaya, Dahod, Gujarat, India
