“…Amblyopia is the main source of preventable child blindness (11) and of monocular vision in 20-to 70-year-old patients (9) . The incidence is 1% to 5% in children (12) , and it accounts for about 60% of vision disorders in preschool and school-age children (13) . Despite the high incidence of amblyopia in children and the fact that it affects their cognitive development, school performance, social integration, and future profession (13,14) , its neural basis is relatively poorly understood.…”

“…No Brasil, existem 98 milhões de pessoas com algum tipo de deficiência visual, dos quais 80 milhões não têm acesso a qualquer tratamento (11)(12) . Observou-se que a ambliopia, a baixa visual uni ou bilateral sem nenhum substrato orgânico detectável pelo exame oftalmológico, é uma das maiores causas de cegueira prevenível principalmente em crianças (4,(6)(7)(8)(9) . A preocupação em detectar e tratar precocemente problemas oculares que levam a ambliopia em crianças incentivou a criação, em várias partes do mundo, de programas de triagem visual, desde o ingresso da criança na escola, para avaliação por oftalmologistas (2,4,6,(8)(9)13) .…”
