Occlusion properties of prosthetic contact lenses for the treatment of amblyopia
Journal of American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus , 12/31/08
Collins RS et al. - Sufficient vision penalization can be achieved to make occlusion with prosthetic contact lenses a viable therapy for amblyopia. The degree of penalization can be varied and different iris print patterns and pupil sizes, using peripheral fusion, can be preserved with some lenses. Prosthetic contact lenses can be more cosmetically appealing and more tolerable than other amblyopia treatment modalities.
