Its findings have now been published in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thelancet.com\/journals\/lancet\/article\/PIIS0140-6736(23)02893-3\/fulltext\">Lancet<\/a> and could prove vital for updating clinical guidelines around the world.<\/p>\n<p>The study has been jointly led by senior author clinical lead <a href=\"https:\/\/neuroscience.cooperandinspira.org\/physicians\/irene-gottlob\/\">Irene Gottlob, MD<\/a>, previously Professor and Chair of Ophthalmology at University of Leicester, along with Frank Proudlock, Associate Professor and Michael Hisaund, research orthoptist at the University of Leicester. Dr. Gottlob is currently Professor of Neurology at\u00a0 Cooper Medical School of Rowan University and attending physician with <a href=\"https:\/\/neuroscience.cooperandinspira.org\/\">Cooper and Inspira Neurosciences<\/a> in Camden, New Jersey.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese results are important because an extended period of glasses wearing before patching is commonly used today by many countries,\u201d Dr.\u00a0 Gottlob said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmblyopia affects 1-5% of children and currently treatment outcomes are poor. We hope that the results of this study could pave the way for personalized treatment care for children with amblyopia, tailoring the type of treatment to the child.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Amblyopia is usually caused by either strabismus, where the two eyes look in different directions, or anisometropia, where the light focusing mechanisms are different between the two eyes. It typically leads to much poorer vision in one eye and if left untreated can generate lifelong visual problems.<\/p>\n<p>The study divided 334 children aged between three and eight years in a randomized controlled trial across hospitals in the UK, Greece, Austria, Germany and Switzerland, who required treatment for \u2018lazy eye\u2019 into two groups. One group received patching treatment for 24 weeks after a lengthy period of 18 weeks wearing glasses. The other group received patching treatment for 24 weeks after only three weeks wearing glasses.<\/p>\n<p>It found that for most children with amblyopia, patching earlier was more effective than patching following an extended period of wearing glasses.<\/p>\n<p>However, one group of younger children, with less severe amblyopia, did benefit from a lengthier period of 18 weeks glasses wearing before patching as they were most likely to improve during this time.<\/p>\n<p>Dr Proudlock said: \u201cWe measured the improvement in vision as the main outcome, but we also found, using questionnaires, that families preferred to start patching without a period of prolonged glass wear. The numbers of hours of patching needed was equal in both groups. Since younger children with less severe visual loss responded better to initial treatment with glasses, our study introduced an important advancement in personalized medicine.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He added that further research was needed to improve personalized care for amblyopia.<\/p>\n<p>The study was funded by Action Medical Research, the NIHR Clinical Research Network who supported the UK sites through the NIHR portfolio adoption scheme and the Ulverscroft Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>####<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most children with a \u2018lazy eye\u2019 benefit from earlier patching, new research by University of Leicester and Cooper Medical School of Rowan University experts show.
