RESUMEN
Our study from January 1988 to May 1993 relates to 49 strabismic amblyopia records which represent 56 percent of strabismic children. The objective of this work is to insist on the interest of tracking down and early treatment of strabismic amblyopia because the therapeutic efficacy depend on the child age, and on the time between strabismus beginning and the treatment. The children age varied between 2 and 14 years. The strabismus was convergent in 44 cases, and divergent in 5 ones, with an oculary dominance in 90 percent of cases. The visual acuteness different between the two eyes was lower or equal to 4/10 in 26 cases and higher than 4/10 in 23 ones. Treatment consisted in an optic correction after cycloplegia and an amblyopia reeducation by occlusions of fixing eye with a variable frequency according to the age of the child and to the amblyopia deepness. The keeping treatment called for alternated occlusions over a right eye optic penalization. The functional recuperation after amblyopia reeducation is better among children group of 6 years [81,25%]
