Title Structural Correlates of Amblyopia
Creator Eric Gaier, MD, PhD
Affiliation Boston Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA
Subject Amblyopia; OCT-Angiography; Lateral Geniculate Nucleus; Retinal Silencing; Ocular Dominance Columns
Description Amblyopia has long been defined as visual impairment without an 'organic' cause, referring to anatomic and/or structural pathology. There is a growing body of evidence, enabled by technological and scientific advancement, that structural correlates to amblyopia exist from the retina to high-order visual brain regions.
