A 5-year-old girl was referred to our clinic for strabismus and low vision. BCVA was 20/200 and 20/20 in the right and left eyes. Cycloplegic autorefractometric measures revealed refractive error of –18.00 (–1.25 α 165 °) D,−0.25 (–0.50 α 15 °) D in the right and left eyes. Cover-uncover test revealed 10 PD right esotropia. Anterior segment examination was normal. In fundus examination, extensive myelinated nerve fibers were detected in the right eye, left eye was normal. The patient was prescribed –15.50 (–1.00 α 165 °) D and –0.50 (–0.50 α 15 °) D spectacles, and 4 hr/day occlusion therapy was initiated. There was no increase in BCVA during the 3rd, 6th, and 9th months’ visits.
