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.

Accuracy and precision of a sphero‐cylindrical over‐refraction app for smartphones

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the accuracy and precision of a web‐based smartphone app designed to measure sphero‐cylindrical over‐refraction. Methods A total of 307 healthy young subjects (22.5 ± 3.4 years) underwent clinical subjective refraction. In addition to each subject's refractive correction, spherical and cylindrical errors from −1.50 to 0.00 ...
