北醫附設醫院眼科分析六年來接受「CAM vision-stimulator」弱視治療的患童54名,將其分為年幼組-即4~6 1/2歲組、年長組-即6 1/2~8歲組;發現兩組於治療一、三、六及九個月後之視力進步情形,兩組間沒有統計學上之差異;但年幼組與年長組分別比較各時段之現力進步情形,則皆於一、三、六個月時的視力有明顯進步現象,但兩組皆於九個月時的視力進步情形並不明顯。綜觀其視力改善率,年幼組為97%,年長組為86%。然而此次研究的對象,究其原因大多為等視性非正視眼引起的,佔年幼組的88%,佔年長組的95%。
The CAM vision-stimulator treatment was given to 54 amblyopic children in TMCH during the past 6 years. They were divided into two groups, one composed of children 4-6 1/2 years old, the other composed of children 6 1/2-8 years old. The average number of treatment was 21, while, the average period of treatmeht was 5.2 months. There was no significant difference regarding improved V.A. between these two groups in the training periods of the 1st month, the 1st quarter, the 2nd quarter and the 3rd quarter (P>.10, by student t-test). But both groups had a significant improvement of V.A. (P<.05, by student t-test) in the 1st month, the 1st quarter and the 2nd quarter of the training periods. However, there was no significant improvement of V.A. in the 3rd quarter of list training period in both groups. 97% of the children in the younger guoup and 88% in the older group showed visual improvement of at least two lines on the Snellen chart. The main cause of their amblyopia was isoametropia. 88% of the children in the younger group and 95% in the older group were found to have isoametropia.
