Abstract: Suppression that is the result of interocular competition is an important machanism of amblyopia.The imbalance of suppression may lead the consequence to amblyopia.In the early study,researchers had raised the theory of Ⅱ.Quadratic Summation which had revealed the relationship of interocular interaction and suppression.In some basic researches, other studies had showed the most possible anatomic location of suppression.Recently, researchers found a new method to quantify the interocular suppression named the noise model.Further studies found a novel disinhibition therapy to treat amblyopia.We summarized the research advances in suppression and disinhibition treatment in amblyopia.
