We compared near stereoacuity, measured with the Frisby test, and distance stereoacuity, measured with the revised Frisby-Davis (FD2) test, enabling a comparison with the original version of the FD2. In the revised version of the FD2 test, a white background is used instead of a backlit background. We also examined the effect of age, gender and visual problems. We used the Frisby test at distan...

PURPOSE To evaluate the relationship of anisometropia with unilateral amblyopia, interocular acuity difference (IAD), and stereoacuity among Head Start preschoolers using both clinical notation and vector notation analyses. DESIGN Multicenter, cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS Three- to 5-year-old participants in the Vision in Preschoolers (VIP) study (n = 4040). METHODS Secondary analy...

Previous investigations of stereopsis in children have found that stereoacuity improves gradually over time and does not reach adult levels until well into childhood. The unusually protracted period of development implied by these data is at odds with the development of other visual capacities, such as acuity, contrast sensitivity, increment thresholds, and flicker fusion. When tested on those ...

purpose : to evaluate the efficacy of pattern visual evoked potentials (pvep), standard automated perimetry (sap), short-wavelength automated perimetry (swap), contrast sensitivity (cs), stereoacuity testing in detecting subclinical visual impairment in visually asymptomatic patients with multiple sclerosis (ms) and no history of optic neuritis methods : twenty-seven eyes of 27 patients (7 male...

The research paper concerns the development of a new mobile application emulating measurement of stereoacuity using Google Cardboard. Stereoacuity test is based on binocular vision that is the skill of human beings and most animals to recreate depth sense in visual scene. Google Cardboard is a very low cost device permitting to recreate depth sense of images showed on the screen of a smartphone...

Stereoacuity thresholds, measured with bar targets, rise as the absolute disparity of the bars is increased. One explanation for this rise is that, as the bars are moved away from the fixation plane, the stereo system uses coarser mechanisms to encode the bars' disparity; coarse mechanisms are insensitive to small changes in target disparity, resulting in higher thresholds. To test this explana...

We read the interesting article entitled: “Stereoacuity after photorefractive keratectomy in myopia” by Zarei-Ghanavati et al. As we already published, data from stereopsis tests may need special care for analysis. By nature, the results of stereoacuity tests followageometrical sequence bymultiplying at a ratio. For example, if we have 120 s of arc of stereoacuity in a subject and480 in another...
