Overall aim | |
To determine the dose-response relation for occlusion therapy as a function of age and category of amblyopia | |
Specific objectives | |
1 | To monitor objectively occlusion dose longitudinally throughout occlusion treatment |
2 | To record changes in visual performance longitudinally while children with amblyopia undergo occlusion therapy |
3 | To incorporate (1) and (2) above into a dose-response model of occlusion treatment and visual outcome as a function of age and category of amblyopia |
4 | To derive from the dose-response model, candidate occlusion regimens suitable for inclusion within randomised controlled trials of treatment effectiveness |
