Table 1.

Comparison of refraction and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness

Comparison between affected and contralateral eyes
Recovered amblyopia (50 eyes of 25 subjects) Persistent amblyopia (52 eyes of 26 subjects)

Contralateral eye Affected eye P* Contralateral eye Affected eye P*
Refraction (diopters) 1.725 (2.173) 3.365 (3.492) 0.002 1.499 (2.272) 3.468 (3.941) 0.003
Retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (μm) 104.39 (9.24) 107.13 (11.69) 0.201 105.16 (12.99) 105.48 (13.97) 0.477

Comparison between affected eyes of recovered and persistent amblyopia
Refraction P = 0.965
Retinal nerve fiber layer thickness P = 0.565

Note: Data are shown as “mean (standard deviation)”. Refraction: spherical equivalent values. P values are for comparison between affected and fellow eyes* (paired t-test) and between the affected eyes of recovered and persistent amblyopia (unpaired t-test).
