Purpose: It is generally known that amblyopia is present in 2-3% of the general population. One of the most common types of functional amblyopia is anisohypermetropic amblyopia, which occurs as a result of constant suppression of the eye with greater hypermetropia. The universal principle to detect amblyopia as soon as possible and begin treatment as soon as possible (the younger child- the more rapid the response), despite three centuries of experience still does not give universal regimen. Method: This is a retrospective study of 18 patients Stankov Ophthalmology, both sexes, aged between 10 and 12 years. A review of all patients, we find that the best visual acuity determined by Snellen is up to 0.3 on amblyopic eye with appropriate correction. All children were treated with total occlusion of sound eye for 1 to 6 months, with monthly control. Before starting treatment we make a fundus examination and excluded the possibility of organic impairment. Results: In 16 patients (89%) there was an increase in visual acuity of 0.7 or more with optimal optical correction. After correction of visual acuity of all patients was prescribed partial occlusion. Conclusion: Treatment of anisohypermetropic amblyopia should try in the years after the maturation of the visual system. If after six months of treatment, visual acuity does not progress, it is appropriate to consider discontinuation of further treatment.
