Abstract
Amblyopic patients Eye also have deficits in accommodation, contrast sensitivity and spatial orientation. It is usually Occurs in the first decade of life, but its effects can last for life time. Amblyopia is best diagnosed and treated as early as possible, but results from clinical study have challenged the notion of a significant age effect of treatment. A prospective observational study was conducted between 6‐16 years visiting to our outpatient department with defective vision. Detailed history about present and past ocular problems, history of any medical or surgical treatment and family history were taken. A standard examination procedure was used for each study subject. In our study, we found that the most common amblyopia was anisometropic amblyopia (44%), followed by ametropic amblyopia (24%), strabismic amblyopia (12%), meridional amblyopia (10%) and least common was visual deprivation amblyopia (8%).
