The QuickSee autorefractor reliably measures the accommodative response in children compared with the Shin‐Nippon autorefractor

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
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.

The effect of anisometropia on stereopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background and aim: For good stereopsis, the two retinal images should have similar clarity, shape, and size. Anisometropia is one of the factors which has affect on stereopsis.

Self-refraction, ready-made glasses and quality of life among rural myopic Chinese children: a non-inferiority randomized trial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: To study, for the first time, the effect of wearing ready-made glasses and glasses with power determined by self-refraction on children's quality of life. METHODS: This is a randomized, double-masked non-inferiority trial.

The Waterloo Differential Acuity Test (WatDAT)—Testability and normative data

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the testability of the WatDAT for measuring recognition visual acuity (VA) in children aged between 18 to 48 months, report preliminary age‐related data and compare with two commercially available matching tests. Methods A total of 57 children (18.5–45.8 months) attended for two sessions.

Post‐concussion clinical findings of oculomotor function in paediatric patients with persisting symptoms compared to healthy controls

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Oculomotor deficits in vergence and accommodation can arise in paediatric patients with persistent concussion symptoms, although the profile is not well established. This study aimed to describe the frequency of these deficits in persistently symptomatic concussed paediatric patients and identify effective screening tools.

Response of accommodation and vergence systems to low dose atropine

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
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

Long‐term test and retest reliability of clinical vergence testing

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To establish long‐term reliability measures for vergence testing in a control population of adolescents. Methods Healthy participants between 12 and 17.5 years with normal binocular vision were recruited from 10 clinical sites. Cover test, near point of convergence (NPC), positive and negative fusional vergences, vergence facility (12∆

Myopia and defocus: the current understanding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The current theories relating to the development and progression of myopia are related to exposure of the eye to hyperopic defocus. This paper discusses these theories and the large body of recent research investigating the evidence behind them.
