Characteristics of saccades during the near point of convergence test
The near point of convergence test is widely used to evaluate binocular vision. It assesses the ability of the eyes to converge at short distances. Although the test consists of a pure symmetrical vergence task, small involuntary saccades occur concurrently.

Frequency of Convergence Insufficiency Among Young Adults in a University Population [PDF]
Background: Convergence insufficiency (CI) is a binocular vision disorder that has been linked to increasing visual demands of near tasks. As young adults routinely perform many near-work tasks, often with digital devices, this study evaluated the ...
