  • Study of neural mechanisms underlying anisometropic amblyopia with event-related potential

    ObjectiveTo investigate the neural mechanisms of subjects with anisometropic amblyopia using event-related potential (ERP) technology.MethodsNineteen subjects diagnosed with anisometropic amblyopia were consecutively recruited from the outpatients of the West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2013 to February 2014, and twenty normal subjects were recruited as control subjects. All subjects were given different orientation Gabor stimuli with three spatial frequencies (1, 2, 8 cpd) and their ERP was recorded. The differences of P3b, including amplitude and latency, were compared between amblyopic eye and fellow or control eye.ResultsAmong the three groups of amblyopic eye and fellow or control eye, there was no statistically significant difference in accuracy or response time at three spatial frequencies (P>0.05), in latency or amplitude of P3b at low spatial frequencies (1, 2 cpd) ((P>0.05), or in amplitude of P3b at high spatial frequency (8 cpd) (P>0.05). P3b latency of amblyopic eye extended at high spatial frequency (8 cpd), compared to fellow or control eye. Amblyopic eye was most significantly weakened in Brodmann area 17 at the P3b wave of each spatial frequency (1, 2, 8 cpd), and there was most significantly weakened in high spatial frequency (8 cpd).ConclusionThe P3b latency of amblyopic eye extended at high spatial frequency suggests that the cognitive function of amblyopia is impaired, at an extent, in the late visual processing stage.
