Reading performance improvement in amblyopic children using dichoptic eye-tracking training and an eye-tracking-based 30 second reading test

Abstract

Reading is fundamental to academic achievement and child development. Strabismic and or anisometropic amblyopes were found to be slower readers when compared with controls. Poor reading among amblyopes is attributed to their fixation instability which causes them to have difficulties in planning and executing accurate forward saccades during reading.
