Contribution of Short-Time Occlusion of the Amblyopic Eye to a Passive Dichoptic Video Treatment for Amblyopia beyond the Critical Period

Figure 1

Illustration of the dichoptic movies. The two eyes’ views are shown side by side. Complementary patterned image masks composed of irregularly shaped blobs were overlaid over the images seen by the two eyes. The shape and location of the blobs were varied dynamically every 10 seconds. (a) 100% contrast images were presented to the two eyes. (b) A 100% contrast image is presented to the left eye, and an image with a contrast reduced to 40% is presented to the right eye. Movie examples are available as supplementary material.
