Screening A child is considered for the study after undergoing a standard of care and study specific eye examinations (by a study investigator as part of standard of care) that identifies amblyopia appearing to meet the eligibility criteria. The study will be discussed with the child's parent(s) or guardian(s) (referred to subsequently as parent(s)). Parent(s) who express an interest in the study will be given a copy of the informed consent form to read. Written informed consent / assent must be obtained from a parent and child prior to performing any study-specific procedures that are not part of the child's routine care.
On screening visit, eligibility assessment, medical history,Demographic data, Refraction and Cycloplegia, Demonstration suitability using the CureSight, ATS Diplopia Questionnaire, Symptom Survey Distance VA Testing , Ocular Alignment Testing, Near VA Testing, Stereoacuity Testing-Randot, Stereoacuity Testing- Titmus Fly, Eye movement exams (optional), Contrast sensitivity (optional), Reading rest (optional)
Randomization The EDC and data management will construct a Master Randomization List using a permutated block design stratified by initial visual acuity in the amblyopic eye and age which will specify the order of treatment group assignments. Randomization will be managed directly by the eCRF platform.
All eligible subjects enrolled in the study will be followed for 16 weeks. Subjects will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 allocation to one of the following treatment groups for 16 weeks:
Follow up visits
Treatment or control cessation and follow-up; or, Control (patching) continuation with same modality (more improvement desired); or, Cross-over to a different treatment (avoid missing the optimal window of opportunity in young age)
•Optional Visit 6: 28 weeks ± 1 week (exploratory outcome, including retainment of improvement; and additional exploratory outcomes

The call center will be comprised of NovaSight personnel, protected by a firewall. For the patching group subjects, the call center personnel will contact all subjects' guardians at 1 week (3 to 7 days) to encourage initial compliance with treatment.
For the CureSight treatment group, the call center will contact the subjects' guardians in order to:
Permission for such contacts will be included in the Informed Consent Form.
The call center personal will be exposed to the following details, contact information, email and phone number.

| CureSight | Device | Subjects assigned to the binocular treatment group will be prescribed the CureSight treatment to watch for 90 minutes per day, 5 days a week for 16 weeks for the total of 120 hours. Parents of subjects will be instructed that the 90 minutes of daily treatment should be completed in a single 90-minute session, but if this is not possible for whatever reason, the treatment may be divided into two shorter sessions totaling 90 minutes per day |

Inclusion Criteria:
The following criteria must be met for a child to be enrolled in the study:
Age 4 to <9 years male and female
Amblyopia associated with strabismus, anisometropia, or both (previously treated or untreated)
Criteria for strabismic amblyopia: At least one of the following must be met:
Criteria for anisometropia: At least one of the following criteria must be met:
Criteria for combined-mechanism amblyopia: Both of the following criteria must be met:
Amblyopia associated with anisometropia, strabismus or both meeting at least one of the following conditions:
Must have refractive error correction (based on a cycloplegic refraction completed within the last 7 months) if any of the following are true:
NOTE: Subjects with cycloplegic refractive errors that do not fall within the requirements above for spectacle correction may be given spectacles at investigator's discretion, but must follow the study-specified prescribing guidelines, as detailed below.
Spectacle prescribing instructions referenced to the cycloplegic refraction completed within the last 7 months:
Spectacle correction meeting the above criteria must be worn:
For at least 16 weeks OR until distance VA stability is documented (defined as <0.1 logMAR change by the same testing method measured on 2 consecutive exams at least 8 weeks apart).
For determining VA stability (non-improvement):
VA, measured in each eye without cycloplegia in current spectacle correction (if applicable) within 7 days prior to randomization using the Lea symbol per ATS VA protocol for children < 7 years and the E-ETDRS VA protocol for children ≥ 7 years on a study-approved device displaying single surrounded optotypes, as follows:
Visual acuity in the amblyopic eye 20/32 to 20/100 inclusive
Best-corrected dominant-eye VA meeting the following criteria:
Interocular difference ≥ 2 logMAR lines (Lea symbol per ATS)
Heterotropia with a near deviation of <5∆ (measured by SPCT) in habitual correction (Angles of ocular deviation >4∆ are not allowed because large magnitudes of the deviation would compromise successful alignment of the dichoptic stimuli.)
Passing a dedicated 10 min in-clinic performance ability test to assure suitable eye tracking performance (validity of eye tracking data >90% and successful calibration process).
Subjects and families eligible for clinic visits over duration of study.
Subject in general good health and able, as per investigator decision, to comply with study visits and protocol procedures and wear refractive correction and has access to wireless internet at home which is able to support the CureSight treatment (loaned by sponsor) .
Signed and dated informed consent form.
Parent and participant understand and are willing to comply with study procedures and will be available for the duration of the study.

Subjects will be seen at follow-up visits. A Masked Examiner must complete distance VA, near VA and stereoacuity testing at these visits. All procedures will be performed with the subject's current spectacle correction. If a subject currently wears spectacles but is not wearing them at the follow-up examination for whatever reason, testing must be performed in trial frames except for Visit 1 and Visit 5 visual acuity must ONLY be performed in current refractive correction glasses (not trial frames).
Prior to the Masked Examiner entering the room, subjects and parents should be instructed not to discuss their treatment with the Masked Examiner.
|
| Patching | Device | Subjects assigned to the patching group will wear an adhesive patch over the dominant eye for 2 hours per day, 7 days per week for 16 weeks. Parents of subjects will be instructed that the 2 hours of daily patching should be completed in a single 2-hour session, but if this is not possible for whatever reason, the treatment may be divided into shorter sessions totaling 2 hours. Parents will be asked to complete a usage diary by manually recording the patch usage time on daily basis. |
