Fluoxetine as a possible treatment for adult amblyopia: results of a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial
Purpose
To evaluate the effects of oral fluoxetine on visual acuity and visual-evoked potential (VEP) parameters in adults patching for amblyopia.
Methods
In this randomized clinical trial, adults (>18 years of age) with anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia were assigned randomly to a treatment (fluoxetine) group or a placebo group. Standard treatments for amblyopia (glasses prescription and patching) were prescribed for 4 months for all patients beforehand. The first group received fluoxetine (20 mg per day) and the second group received a placebo for 3 months, both continuing patching. Visual acuity evaluation and VEP were performed before and after treatment.
Results
A total of 55 participants were included: 29 in the fluoxetine group and 26 in the placebo group. Mean age was 27.2 ± 8.6 years (18-54). The mean logMAR visual acuity of the amblyopic eye improved by 0.20 ± 0.24 (0-0.8) in the fluoxetine group (P < 0.001) and by 0.08 ± 0.15 (0-0.7) in the placebo group (P = 0.01); mean logMAR improvement was significantly higher in the fluoxetine group than in the placebo group (P = 0.04). At the end of the study, mean visual acuity of the fluoxetine group (0.36 ± 0.21 log MAR) was better than the placebo group (0.43 ± 0.35 log MAR). Among the VEP parameters, N75 amplitude did not change significantly in either group relative to baseline, but the changes were statistically significantly different between the two groups (P = 0.05); N135 latency improved from baseline in the fluoxetine group (P = 0.03).
Conclusions
In our study cohort, fluoxetine treatment resulted in greater improvement in visual acuity than placebo during patching for adult amblyopia.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
