Factors influencing visual outcome in anisometropic amblyopes

Table 4

Influence of factors in explaining final visual acuity (logMAR) in patients with non-strabismic anisometropic amblyopia or with a microtopia (n=95)

R2 (%) β 95% CI for β Standardised β t statistic Significance
R2 statistic expressed as a percentage denotes the amount of variability in the final vision that this particular factor accounts for.
Correlation coefficient β is expressed in standard deviations to allow direct comparison of the gradients of the relative slopes.
Spherical equivalent 0.259 (26%) 0.062 0.04 to 0.08 0.492 5.74 p<0.001
Anisometropia 0.146 (15%) 0.055 0.03 to 0.08 0.382 4.01 p<0.001
Age at presentation 0.001 (<1%) −0.005 −0.03 to 0.02 −0.033 −0.32 p=0.752
