Visual acuity, bangerter filters, stereoacuity
This study investigated the effect of monocular blur induced by Bangerter filters (BF) on both monocular and binocular visual acuity (VA) and stereoacuity in normal visual systems. Subjects included 24 healthy student volunteers aged 20.33 ±1.79 years; 22 female. One...

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors sought to examine clinical correlates that may be related to foveal development in albinism with an aim to qualitatively describe the phenotype spectrum of albinism. Binocular best corrected visual acuity ranged from 20/20 to 20/80. Best corrected visual...

Vision, nystagmus, optic nerve hypoplasia, paediatrics, septo-optic dysplasia, strabismus
Septo-optic dysplasia (SOD) and optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH) cause congenital visual impairment. Their aetiology is mostly unknown. The authors aim was to investigate the prevalence of specified ophthalmological features in patients with these disorders. These features included impaired visual acuity,...

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
Stereoacuity was compared preoperatively to six weeks postoperative after cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) implant. The authors evaluated the association of postoperative stereoacuity with visual acuity, age and duration of preoperative symptoms. This prospective study recruited 142 patients: 92...
