Aniseikonia in hyperopic anisometropia cases

Predicting refractive aniseikonia after cataract surgery in anisometropia.

PURPOSE To propose a comprehensive classification of anisometropia, a method to calculate the theoretical related aniseikonia (objective aniseikonia) and a purpose-designed eikonometer to measure aniseikonia psychophysically (subjective aniseikonia). SETTING University Hospital Antwerp, Department of Ophthalmology, Edegem, Belgium. METHODS The occurrence of anisometropia was evaluated in 26...

Compensation for experimentally induced hyperopic anisometropia in adolescent monkeys.

PURPOSE Early in life, the optical demand associated with the eye's effective refractive state regulates emmetropization in many species, including primates. However, the potential role of optical demand and/or defocus in the genesis of common refractive errors, like myopia, that normally develop much later in life is not known. The purpose of this study was to determine whether chronic optical...

Rapid neuroadaptation to surgically-induced aniseikonia in a 17-year-old patient with high preoperative anisometropia: A case report

Purpose To report a case of rapid neuroadaptation to surgically-induced aniseikonia in a 17-year-old with preoperative anisometropia of 9.5 D. Observations A 17-year-old female with a history of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and progressive high myopia with resulting anisometropia secondary to conventional laser photocoagulation in her right eye was found to have diplopia after undergoing ...

Retina and Optic Disc Characteristics in Amblyopic and Non-amblyopic Eyes of Patients with Myopic or Hyperopic Anisometropia

OBJECTIVES To compare retinal and optic disc characteristics between amblyopic and non-amblyopic eyes in patients with myopic and hyperopic anisometropia measured with optical coherence tomography (OCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with myopic (25 patients: 17 female, 8 male; median age 27 years, range 16-40 years) and hyperopic (31 patients: 19 female, 12 male; median age 20 years, range ...
