Effect of specialized applications on the visual functions of amblyopic eye in Latvian children
2021
The classical treatment option of amblyopia is occlusions of non-amblyopic eye. The newest methods involve specialized computer and phone games, applications that involve both eyes in visual processing during treatment as well as stimulate binocularity. The aim of the work was to assess the efficiency of specialized phone application ‘Duovision’ in the treatment of amblyopia in preschool-age children. There were 30 participants (5-8 years old): 16 participants had occlusion therapy; 14 participants played the specialized phone application Duovision®. The visual acuity of amblyopic eye, as well as stereopsis was evaluated at near and far distances before the treatment, 2 and 4 months after t…
Assessment of spatial perception for a multi-layer volumetric display: the effect of exocentric and egocentric distance on relative depth judgements
2020
Three-dimensional images on multiple depth layers of the volumetric display provide the physiological depth cues which ensure the high precision of depth judgements at close viewing distances and enhance the user experience. However, the contribution of physiological cues declines with an increase of viewing distance (egocentric distance), and the human spatial perception varies depending on the inter-stimuli distance (exocentric distance). We conducted a psychophysical experiment to test the perception of three-dimensional images rendered on the volumetric display depending on exocentric and egocentric stimuli distance. The constant angular size visual stimuli were displayed on different d…
Developmental dyslexia: Visual abnormalities during ocular rotation
2005
[u]Purpose[/u]: Most of the studies dealing with visual perception disabilities in children suffering from developmental dyslexia have been done in orthophoric position. The objective of the present study is to explore the visual perception during eye movements. [u]Methods[/u]: Sixty male patients (11.8 ± 1.8 years) were examined by neuropsychologists to evaluate reading difficulties. Visual perception during ocular rotation was assessed with a Clement Clarke synoptophore with G3–G4 slides, in primary gaze, then laterally at 20, 30 and 40° in dim light. [u]Results[/u]: Three main abnormalities were found. • Isolated perception abnormalities with intermittent shading of the image, central, p…
Curso de prácticas de Optometria II : práctica 8 ficha clínica
2020
Esta publicación surge con la finalidad de servir de guía, consulta y orientación para que el estudiantado, (o las personas interesadas en el tema), puedan ir siguiendo un orden de pruebas y de pasos durante la realización de la actividad relacionada con la evaluación de la visión binocular. Nuestro objetivo general es facilitar que se consoliden las bases prácticas necesarias para la evaluación óptima de la visión binocular en cada una de las partes que la componen. En esta publicación, correspondiente a la práctica 8, se muestra como plasmar los resultados de las pruebas realizadas, durante la evaluación de la visión binocular, siguiendo un orden estructurado.
When virtual and real worlds coexist: Visualization and visual system affect spatial performance in augmented reality
2021
New visualization approaches are being actively developed aiming to mitigate the effect of vergence-accommodation conflict in stereoscopic augmented reality; however, high interindividual variability in spatial performance makes it difficult to predict user gain. To address this issue, we investigated the effects of consistent and inconsistent binocular and focus cues on perceptual matching in the stereoscopic environment of augmented reality using a head-mounted display that was driven in multifocal and single focal plane modes. Participants matched the distance of a real object with images projected at three viewing distances, concordant with the display focal planes when driven in the mu…

Object Localization Does Not Imply Awareness of Object Category at the Break of Continuous Flash Suppression
2017
In continuous flash suppression (CFS), a dynamic noise masker, presented to one eye, suppresses conscious perception of a test stimulus, presented to the other eye, until the suppressed stimulus comes to awareness after few seconds. But what do we see breaking the dominance of the masker in the transition period? We addressed this question with a dual-task in which observers indicated (i) whether the test object was left or right of the fixation mark (localization) and (ii) whether it was a face or a house (categorization). As done recently Stein et al. (2011a), we used two experimental varieties to rule out confounds with decisional strategy. In the terminated mode, stimulus and masker wer…
Binocular vision alterations after refractive and cataract surgery: a review.
2018
To review binocular and accommodative disorders documented after corneal or intraocular refractive surgery, in normal healthy prepresbyopic patients. A bibliographic revision was performed; it included works published before 1st July 2017 where accommodation and/or binocularity was assessed following any type of refractive surgical procedure. The search in Pubmed yielded 1273 papers, 95 of which fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Few publications reporting binocular vision and/or accommodative changes after refractive surgery in normal subjects were found. The reduction in fusional vergence is the most frequently reported alteration. Anisometropia is an important risk factor for postoperativ…
Binocular, Accommodative and Oculomotor Alterations In Multiple Sclerosis: A Review
2020
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an acquired demyelinating and inflammatory neurodegenerative disease affecting the central nervous system (CNS). Clinical and subclinical ocular disturbances occur in almost all patients with MS. The objective of this narrative review was to collect and summarize the available scientific information on oculomotor, accommodative and binocular alterations that have been reported in MS. A systematic search strategy with the following descriptors was carried out: multiple sclerosis, ocular motility disorders, internuclear ophthalmoplegia, nystagmus, vergences, fixation, pupil reflex, accommodation and stereopsis. According to the search, some oculomotor alterations w…
NIR tracking assists sports medicine in junior basketball training
2011
We recorded eye movements of eight elite junior basketball players. We hypothesized that a more stable gaze is correlated to a better shot rate. Upon preliminary testing we invited male juniors whose eyes could be reliably tracked in a game situation. To these ends, we used a head-mounted video-based eye tracker. The participants had no record of ocular or other health issues. No significant differences were found between shots made with and without the tracker cap, Paired samples t-test yielded p= .130 for the far and p=.900 > .050 for the middle range shots.The players made 40 shots from common far and middle range locations, 5 and 4 meters respectively for aged 14 years As expected, a st…
