An update of research on the plasticity of amblyopia after the sensitive period

Amblyopia is a developmental disorder that occurs during a period of neural plasticity early in life.The sensitive period of visual development is a critical period for amblyopia.However,more and more researchers suggest that there is a significant degree of plasticity in the human visual system after this sensitive period.This could be important for the treatment of adult amblyopia and provides evidence for the development and prevention of amblyopia.This review updates the status of research on the plasticity of amblyopia after the sensitive period.
