Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of dichoptic treatment based on Augmented Reality (AR) technology in treating monocular amblyopia aged 12 to 55 years, and compare dichoptic AR treatment with the standard patching therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does dichoptic AR treatment safely and effectively improve visual acuity and other monocular/binocular visual functions in older children and adults with amblyopia? Is binocular therapy superior to occlusion therapy?

Conditions

  • Amblyopia
  • Amblyopia Unilateral

Interventions

DEVICE

Augmented Reality glasses

Dichoptic Augmented Reality (AR) treatment uses the smart glasses connected to a video playback device, and participants watch cartoons, movies, or daily videos during training. The system performs real-time dichoptic processing on visual contents: high spatial frequency images are presented to the amblyopic eye, while low-contrast images are delivered to the dominant eye.

DEVICE

Eye patch

Opaque eye patches were used to cover the fellow eye (dominant eye), forcing participants to view objects with their amblyopic eye. The total daily occlusion duration was 4 hours, which could be split into separate sessions with a minimum duration of 2 hours per session. The intervention lasted for 3 months in total.
