How to treat amblyopia combined with myopia?

(1) Covering method This method uses a three-layer black cloth as a blindfold to cover the healthy eye and inhibit the dominant eye to force the amblyopic eye to exercise, and the duration of the cover is determined by the patient’s age and visual acuity and the nature of the gaze. The younger the patient, the shorter the duration of coverage. Atropine drops can also be used instead of covering. Atropine can cause a temporary reduction in near and far vision and is a disguised method of masking. (2) Posterior image therapy is a method to correct paracentral gaze and improve visual acuity by protecting the central recess of the fundus, using a posterior image mirror with 3o, 5o, 7o circular black dots, 6V15W strong light to shine on the macular area to produce a posterior image, suppress paracentral gaze and excite the central visual function, at this time, gaze at the visual mark (cross or the E word visible on the visual acuity table), twice a day, 2~3 times each time repeatedly. (3) red filter method The macular area of the fundus contains only cone cells, cone cells are sensitive to red light, forcing the central concave gaze, inhibit the paracentral area, there are many such treatment instruments in China, the filter wavelength is 620~700nm, raw minutes flashing 60~80 times is appropriate. (4) Drug therapy method moderate supplementation of trace elements zinc, copper, because it is related to the retina, optic nerve metabolism, also useful levodopa oral vision improvement, must pay attention to the use of methods. In addition, there are visual stimulation devices, light brush therapy devices, etc. can treat myopic amblyopia, but amblyopia have different degrees of refractive error, so the first thing to correct refractive error, wear moderate glasses is very important. If there is also strabismus, the strabismus should also be corrected, the correction methods are wearing glasses, surgery.
