摘要:To investigate the factors for treatment success in anisometropic amblyopia according to the spherical equivalent (SE) type of amblyopic eyes. Medical records of 397 children with anisometropic amblyopia aged 3 to 12 years who presented in a secondary referral eye hospital during 2010 ~ 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Anisometropia was defined as ≥ 1 diopter (D) difference in SE, or ≥ 1.5 D difference of cylindrical error between the eyes. According to the SE of amblyopic eyes, patients were categorized into hyperopia (SE ≥ 1D), emmetropia (− 1 < SE < + 1) and myopia (SE ≤ − 1D) groups. Treatment success was defined as achieving interocular logMAR visual acuity difference < 0.2. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the factors for treatment success. Significant factors for the amblyopia treatment success in hyperopia group (n = 270) were younger age [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) (95% confidence interval, CI) = 0.529 (0.353, 0.792)
