A case of reverse amblyopia in a myopic anisometropic patient: an atypical presentation.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
We herein report a case of a 4-year-old female patient who presented with anisometropic amblyopia with initial visual acuity recorded at 20/400 OD and 20/100 OS. The patient was recommended for patching. Eighteen months later, the patient presented with visual acuity of 20/60 OD and 20/80 and reverse amblyopia was noted. In settings of amblyopia, where alternate patching may be used, it is most likely that reverse amblyopia, if present, will affect the more myopic eye. However, unexpectedly, in this case, reverse amblyopia occurred in the less myopic eye. With discontinuation of occlusion therapy and continued use of optical correction, the patients reverse amblyopia resolved and the visual equity equalized. To our knowledge, this is the first case described in the literature demonstrating such an occurrence. Awareness of this rare presentation by clinicians is of great importance to aid in correctly diagnosing and treating such patients.
