Introduction We thank Dr. Arnold for his letter and astute comments. He raises an important point: we don't really know in advance which children may require treatment for future amblyopia recurrence. The child we described had no evidence of anterior segment pathology, eyelid lesions, or birth history to explain the refractive asymmetry. We were especially surprised because he had responded to glasses so well for so long.
Introduction Although amblyopia is often thought to stabilize once a patient reaches their teenage years, a growing body of literature is exploring the efficacy of treatment in preteens and teenagers. Our report explores the case of a child whose anisometropic amblyopia recurred at 15 years old and his response to refractive correction alone. Case Report A 3-year-old boy was referred to the last author by his pediatrician after a failed vision screening.
