Throughout the history of pediatric ophthalmology, pathophysiological state has always played an important role. It's characterized by reduced central vision, often paired with disruption of binocular vision, which is interpreted as amblyopia. Central vision is necessary for social integration, so its disorders cause great quality of life changes in patients limiting their professional activities and complicating everyday life. Despite large number of proposed methods of treatment, amblyopia still remains a pressing problem and its prevalence has not changed significantly over the years.

Dynamics of neurophysiological parameters shows that healthy children develop fully functional retina, visual cortex and cortical-subcortical connections by 12 years. Children with refractive strabismic amblyopia in all age groups show statistically significant (р<0.05) deterioration of neurophysiological parameters of the visual analyzer, retardation of cortical-subcortical connections formation and lower electrical activity of the cerebral cortex. Amblyopic children show lower coefficients of mental development accompanied by intellectual deficiency and deterioration of learning ability. Proposed treatment method improved neurophysiological parameters of the visual analyzer in 83.5% of cases and increased visual acuity in 81.4% of cases. Improvement of psychological development resulted in better logical thinking, memory reinforcement and better adaptation to school educational environment in 86.6% of children.
