Introduction: Amblyopia is a condition with reduced best corrected visual acuity in absence of any ocular pathology. Different treatment approaches of amblyopia have been researched for decades. Recent studies on binocular dichoptic therapy using different software and video game based training showed drastic improvement in visual functions in amblyopic adults. Aim of this review is to assess the effect of vision therapy with dichoptic training in adults with anisometropic amblyopes. Method: Review was conducted in articles published within last 25 years from databases like PubMed, research gate, google scholar. Results: Dichoptic therapy has promising results in treatment of adults with anisometropic amblyopia. However, several limitations of these said researches were observed. Conclusion: Further studies particularly RCTs with strict methodology and treatment protocol, larger sample size and longer follow ups are recommended before clinicians could impart dichoptic therapy as a management option of adults with amblyopia into their evidence based practice.

“…Traditional treatments for amblyopia, such as patching the dominant eye, are most effective during a "critical period" in early childhood, typically before the age of 5 or 6. After this period, the brain's capacity to rewire its visual circuits diminishes, and vision loss becomes more challenging to reverse [1][2] .…”

This study evaluates the effectiveness of visual training on improving visual acuity in children with amblyopia. A randomized controlled trial was conducted with participants assigned to either an intervention group receiving visual training or a control group receiving standard care. Results showed significant improvement in visual acuity in the intervention group compared to the control group at 6 and 12 months. The study suggests that visual training could be an effective addition to current amblyopia treatment strategies. Further research is recommended to explore long-term effects and applicability across different age groups.

“…1 In this regard, case reports have reported that even adult patients with amblyopia can regain binocular vision with improved body and head posture after active vision therapy. 13 As a result, the author suggests that balance and gait should be considered as essential elements in amblyopia evaluation and treatment.…”
