Abstract
Straatsma syndrome is the triad of myelinated retinal nerve fibers, myopia, and amblyopia and may be associated with strabismus,
nystagmus, hypoplastic optic nerve, and heterochromia iridum. The degree of anisometropia, presence of strabismus, extent of
myelination, and macular involvement have been reported to be associated with poor visual acuity after occlusion therapy for amblyopia
in this syndrome. Here we present two cases of Straatsma syndrome with different responses to occlusion therapy and discuss their
treatment responses according to prognostic factors for post-occlusion visual acuity.
