37
Q

moon illusion can be explained by the principle of form constancy. t/f

A

false

b/c its based on size constancy

38
Q

you are assessing a small media opacity using Direct ophthalmoscapy. while fixating on the pupillary border. when you move your head from l to r, you see the opacity move from r to l. where would this opacity most likely locate at?

A

cornea and anterior chamber

b/c we see against motion, the opacity should be located closer to us than fixation point

39
Q

During perceived depth change in convergence micropsia, binocualr convergence cue and monocular accomoodation cue conflicts w/ each other. t/f

A

true

*when we close one eye to look at image, although its through polarized glasses, do we need to change accomm to make it clearer? nope b/c physical object didnt change. our monocular system tells us things didnt change in distance. when we are binocularly viewing, convergence tells us things are getting closer. this is a conflict.

42
Q

minimum displacement needed to see the difference in depth

A

howard-dolman apparatus

44
Q

Stereoacuity threshold in humans is what?

A

2-6 second of arc

*2 seconds of arc is very fine

45
Q

you are using the howard-dolman apparatus to measure a pt stereoacuity.

testing distance= 3m
smallest distance b/w 2 rods that pt can differentiate: 1.8 cm
pt pd: 60 mm

what is his stereoacuity?

A

24 sec arc

*convert all to meters

46
Q

pt stereoacuity: 10 sec arc
pd: 64 mm
target a: 4 meters away
target b: 1 cm further away from A

1.can he differentiate that A and B is separated in depth?
what is the minimum separation in depth b/w a and b that 2.the pt can appreciate the difference b/w them in depth?

A

1.n=8.3 sec arc

stereoacuity=10 sec arc

disparity is smaller than stereoacuity, therefore he cannot resolve!

Viewing Distance and Geometric Limit for Disparity

50
Q

comparing to infinity, how close does the object have to be when you can tell that it is nearer than infinity, using only stereopsis?

A

ex: at 10 arc seconds, max distance is 1320 m

51
Q

• Retinal eccentricity:fovea has the best stereoacuity
• Contrast:
– At contrast threshold (low contrast), stereopsis difficult
– Slight increase in contrast cause great improvement of stereopsis
– If contrast unequal between eye, stereopsis will be degraded
• Luminance level:dimmer–less sensitive to depth
• Color:blue cone system–poorer stereopsis
• Exposure duration:brain takes some time to process

A

Other Factors Influencing Stereoacuity

52
Q

describe the lower limit of stereopsis: what is the smallest disparity we can detect

A

Stereoacuity

53
Q

what is the largest disparity that can still give us depth sensation

A

upper limit

54
Q

– High quality stereopsis, the perceived magnitude of object
depth is proportional to the disparity.
– This zone extends a short distance beyond Panum’s area. Right outside Panum’s area will see diplopia but still has patent stereopsis.

A
55
Q

– Objects can be roughly perceived as being either nearer or farther than fixation, but the magnitude of depth cannot be perceived.
– This zone is beyond Panum’s area, will see diplopia.
– This violate Worth fusional hierarchy

A
56
Q 
• Principle: each eye sees a different image, image pair has disparity to stimulate stereopsis
• Types:
– Stereoscope
– Anaglyph and vectogram
– Liquid crystal shutter stereogoggles 
– Free fusion

63
Q

Vision has 2 parallel neuronal pathways from retina to visual cortex:

A
  • Parvocellularpathway–Fine stereopsis

* Magnocellularpathway–Coarse stereopsis

64
Q

Fine stereopsis is more susceptible to what?

A

binocular anomaly.

65
Q
A

small/ moderate strabismus.

Strabismus patients with small eye turns may have peripheral fusion/ peripheral stereopsis.

66
Q

Vision can use 2 different types of stereoscopic image processing, depends on the environment. what are they?

A
67
Q
A

local stereopsis

68
Q
A

simple monocularly- visible objects, such as lines, edges, or contours.

69
Q

Global stereopsis is more sensitive to binocular anomalies because

A

it is based only on fine stereopsis. Patient can not take advantage of monocular cues.

Clinical testing: random dot stereogram works better than local stereo testing to pick up reduced stereopsis.

70
Q

patent stereopsis can be perceived even with slight diplopia?

A

true

b/c slightly outside of panums area can perceive stereopsis

71
Q

what factors can degrade stereoacuity?

A

low stimulus contrast
testing in peripheral vf
blue colored stimulus

72
Q

Fine stereopsis is more susceptible to any binocular anomaly, including anisometropia and strabismus. (t/f)

A

true

73
Q

clinical stereo testing using random dot stereogram works better than local stereo testing to pick up mildly reduced stereopsis because global stereopsis is more sensitive to binocular anomalies. (t/f)

A

true

global stereopsis uses fine process pathway
the other is fine and course process

74
Q

76
Q

81
Q
A

82
Q
A

color induced stereopsis

83
Q
  • Neutral density filter is placed in front of one eye.
  • ND filter reduces the retinal illuminance to one eye, which causes the neural signal from that retina to be slightly delayed compared to the other eye’s.
A

84
Q

-

A

Potential causes of the Pulfrich effect

85
Q

Try to draw out Pulfrich phenomenon with the filter in front of OD. What direction of movement do you expect? Clockwise or counterclockwise?

A

not sure

86
Q

how is chromostereopsis caused?

A
  • Transverse Chromatic Aberrations:

* Visual axis and optical axis of the eye slightly different.

87
Q

whats the result of chromostereopsis?

A

• From the same fixation plane, blue light falls more
nasally on the retina than red light.
• Blue light creates relative uncrossed disparity– perceived as farther.
