Changes in vergence and accommodation parameters after smartphone use in healthy adults

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2021
Purpose: To assess pre and post vergence and accommodation parameters after monitored reading on a smartphone device. Methods: This prospective comparative study was performed in a tertiary eye care center for a duration of 6 months (December 2017 – May ...

Benefits from vergence rehabilitation: evidence for improvement of reading saccades and fixations

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2016
We hypothesize that binocular coordination of saccades is based on continuous neuroplasticity involving interactions of saccades and vergence. To test this hypothesis we study reading saccades in young students who were diagnosed for vergence disorders ...

A Pilot Study of Disparity Vergence and Near Dissociated Phoria in Convergence Insufficiency Patients Before versus After Vergence Therapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
PURPOSE: This study examined the relationship between the near dissociated phoria and disparity vergence eye movements. Convergence insufficiency (CI) patients before vergence therapy were compared to: 1) the same patients after vergence therapy and 2 ...

Vergence findings and horizontal vergence dysfunction among first year university students in Benin City, Nigeria

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2016
Purpose: The study was designed to determine the prevalence of vergence dysfunctions among first year university students in Nigeria and to document the measures that define the vergence system of the visual system.

A role of eye vergence in covert attention. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Covert spatial attention produces biases in perceptual and neural responses in the absence of overt orienting movements. The neural mechanism that gives rise to these effects is poorly understood.

Attention-Related Eye Vergence Measured in Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Recent evidence shows a novel role for eye vergence in orienting attention in adult subjects. Here we investigated whether such modulation in eye vergence by attention is present in children and whether it is altered in children with ADHD compared to ...

Functional activity within the frontal eye fields, posterior parietal cortex and cerebellar vermis significantly correlates to symmetrical vergence peak velocity: An ROI-based, fMRI study of vergence training

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2014
Convergence insufficiency (CI) is a prevalent binocular vision disorder with symptoms that include double/blurred vision, eyestrain, and headaches when engaged in reading or other near work.

A review of non-strabismic accommodative-vergence anomalies in school-age children. Part 1: Vergence anomalies

open access: yesAfrican Vision and Eye Health, 2015
Comfortable reading and the performance of near point activities involve efficient accommodative and vergence systems. However, accommodative and vergence anomalies are associated with various symptoms that impair efficient near point tasks.

Effect of the accommodation-vergence conflict on vergence eye movements

open access: yesVision Research, 2014
With the broader use of stereoscopic displays, a flurry of research activity about the accommodation-vergence conflict has emerged to highlight the implications for the human visual system. In stereoscopic displays, the introduction of binocular disparities requires the eyes to make vergence movements.

Difference in visual processing assessed by eye vergence movements. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Orienting visual attention is closely linked to the oculomotor system. For example, a shift of attention is usually followed by a saccadic eye movement and can be revealed by micro saccades.
