Se tomaron en cuenta desde los primeros síntomas referidos hasta la rehabilitación óptica y se compararon los resultados de la técnica en todos los integrantes de la casuística, de donde se derivó que fue efectiva en 69,0 por ciento de ellos. También se proporcionan otros datos clínicos y sobre la atención brindada a los niños y adolescentes que padecían la enfermedad.
