Monocular visual acuity and reading parameters in children with unilateral microstrabismic amblyopia (n = 20)
Variable | Amblyopic eyes | Fellow normal eyes | p Value* |
---|---|---|---|
*p<0.05 statistically significant. | |||
†A small CPS indicates that the patient is able to read smaller print sizes with optimal reading speed. | |||
‡High logRAD/logMAR ratios indicate that the reading acuity reaches the level of distance visual acuity, whereas lower logRAD/logMAR ratios indicate a deficit in reading acuity. | |||
Visual acuity (logMAR) | 0.19 (0.15) | −0.1 (0.07) | <0.001 |
Reading acuity (logRAD) | 0.52 (0.21) | 0.07 (0.09) | <0.001 |
Maximum reading speed (wpm) | 139.4 (42.1) | 172.4 (46.7) | <0.001 |
CPS (logRAD)† | 0.89 (0.25) | 0.55 (0.18) | <0.001 |
LogRAD/logMAR ratio (%)‡ | 57.3 (18) | 85.1 (9.2) | <0.001 |
