“…It involves re-establishing binocular vision as the first step by using binocularly based training therapy, which relies on a theory that amblyopia and abnormal interocular suppression are causally linked (Baker et al, 2008;Li et al, 2011;Birch, 2013;Ding et al, 2013;Zhou et al, 2013bZhou et al, ,c, 2018. It improves not only binocular vision Hess and Thompson, 2015;Webber et al, 2016;Kelly et al, 2018) but also monocular acuity (Hess et al, 2010bTo et al, 2011;Li et al, 2013Li et al, , 2014Mansouri et al, 2014;Birch et al, 2015). Despite ongoing debate concerning which therapeutic approach is more effective (Holmes et al, 2016;Kelly et al, 2016;Gao et al, 2018;Manh et al, 2018;Pineles et al, 2019), one should bear in mind the possibility that the visual improvements from both approaches might involve the same mechanisms in the brain.…”
