Journal of pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus 2013The authors studied 5 cases in which combined optical and atropine treatment (COAT) was instituted in children with residual amblyopia after atropine penalization. All 5 amblyopic eyes improved without lasting decrease in the visual acuity of the dominant eyes. Appropriately administered, COAT may rescue atropine failures. Copyright 2013, SLACK Incorporated.
