A

Stereopsis

Grade 1 and 2 and can see in depth

Only can be indicated with a Stereopsis test, if patient has grade 3 you do not need to test for grade 1 and 2

Q

What color filters are placed on the patient for W4D? What are the images for each eye?

A

Red filter OD, green filter OS
OD sees 2 lights (red and white one as red)
OS sees 3 lights (2 green and white one as green)

Q

How can an exo or eso deviation be determined from W4D?

A

Ask patient where the red dots are relative to the green

Red dots on left= exo
Red dots on right= eso

18
Q

What is the diagnosis if the red dots are higher then the left?

A

Left hyperopia

19
Q

What distances is W4D performed at? What about the handheld device?

A

6m (20ft), 3m (10ft), 40cm (16in)

Small handheld unit- 3m and 40cm

20
Q

Define stereopsis.

A

Binocular perception of depth based on retinal disparity (correspondence)

21
Q

What must be true regarding the correspondence of reinstall points during stereopsis?

A

Images must be imaged on non-corresponding retinal points with the disparity not exceeding Panum’s fusional area

22
Q

What is Panum’s fusional area?

A

Point on retina away from corresponding point (not necessarily the fovea) where the image will still be single

How much we can under or over converge and still see a single image

23
Q

Define corresponding retinal points.

A

Same visual direction

24
Q

How large is PFA typically when corresponding point is the fovea?

A

6 to 10 minutes of arc on the retina (does not apply to periphery)
Image will be single within this range

25
Q

What are monocular depth cues?

A

Shadow, perspective, overlap, texture, size constancy provide a lot of depth information

26
Q

How do patients without Stereopsis (one-eyed patients) still see in 3D?

A

Monocular depth cues
Stereopsis only provides a high level of depth perception

27
Q

Define stereo-threshold.

A

The smallest separation between the two objects when the observer can reliably state that one object is in front of the other

28
Q

Describe the three needle test.

A

Middle needle is moved
Observer must determine if center needle is in front, behind, or next to the outside of the two needles

29
Q

What is the Howard-Dolman test?

A

Same as three needle but only has 2 needle
Observer must determine which is closer to them

30
Q

What is the frisby test?

A

Patient must determine which square includes a circle that appears depressed
Circle is painted on the back of the plastic sheet, everything else is on front

Thinner sheets needed for lower stereo-thresholds (better)

31
Q

Define stereoacuity.

A

The difference between 2 vergence demands (2 different objects, how much total vergence they require in degrees)

Unit is seconds of arc

32
Q

What is the average stereoacuity in patients with normal binocular vision?

A

20 seconds of arc with standard deviation of 10

96% of the normal adult population should have stereoacuity of at least 40 seconds of arc

33
Q

Why do we have to test for stereopsis?

A

Assessment of binocular function (highest level)

Screening test in young children (amblyopia, anisometropia, heterotropia)

Job demands

34
Q

What condition may affect stereopsis in a patient?

A

Amblyopia, strabismus, unequal refractive error

35
Q

Do we have to perform W4D if patient has good stereopsis?

A

No

36
Q

Is Stereopsis more important for near or distance vision?

A

Near

37
Q

What do clinical Stereopsis tests use?

A

Polarization to present disparate images to each eye
Produces impression of depth

38
Q

What are some examples of clinical stereopsis tests?

A

Stereo fly test
Wirt Circles (circles overlap to create 3D effect, imaged at non corresponding point within PFA, circles become more closely overlapped as the test continues (less 3D effect), images are closer to fovea, stereoacuity decreases)

39
Q

What does turning the wirt circle book upside or upside down polarized sunglasses do to the image?

A

Fused images are now seen behind the book (going into book)
Uncrossed instead of crossed

40
Q

What is the lowest recording value for Randot? How can we test for higher levels of stereopsis?

A

20 seconds of arc (average level of stereoacuity for patient with normal binocular vision)

Changing the working distance to 80cm (halves the angles)

41
Q

What can be observed regarding the wirt circles when glasses are removed?

A

They have monocular cues

42
Q

Do RDS’s have any monocular cues?

A

No

43
Q

Describe the magic eye test.

A

To see charts in 3D requires accommodation in the plane of the picture (for clarity) with relative divergence that the eye are converged to a point behind the plane of the picture (NRV)

Can also be PRV, the image will be behind the plane of the page rather then in front of it

44
Q

What happens to PFA as we move away from the fovea?

A

Increases

Always measured from the fovea (think of eccentricity of retina)
