  1. At the age of 6 weeks, the number of VIP positive cells and the average optical density in the control group were higher than those in the deprivation group (P = 0.000,0.000).At the age of 9 weeks, the number of positive cells and average optical density in the VIP intervention group were higher than those in the Sefsol intervention group (P = 0.012,0.037) and the amblyopia non-intervention group (P = 0.023,0.007), but still lower than those in the normal control group (P = 0.000,0.000)
