Previous studies indicated that there were regional changes in the white matter and grey matter in amblyopia and that can be detected by the diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and the high-resolution MRI image. However, the exact relationships between cortical thickness of visual cortex and integrity changes of optic radiation (ORs) fibers in anisometropic amblyopia are still unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the changes of the visual cortex associate with integrity changes in the ORs fibers in amblyopia.
