Abstract Introduction This study evaluated the QuickSee autorefractor for measurement of the accommodative response in a cohort of children without significant ametropia, and compared the findings to those determined using the gold‐standard Shin‐Nippon device. Methods Children aged 5–7 years were recruited.

Response of accommodation and vergence systems to low dose atropine
Abstract Purpose Few studies have comprehensively investigated the effect of low dose atropine on the binocular vision system beyond accommodative amplitude. This study examined the effect of 0.05% atropine eye drops on a range of accommodation and vergence parameters across a 10‐day period. Methods Twenty myopic, adult participants (mean age [SD] 22.3
