NPA and VT9 findings should be …
almost the same or the same
NPA findings
lower bino result
convergence problem
NPA findings
lower mono result
accommodative problem
NPA findings
unequal findings
Anisometropia or unequal VA for both eyes
Accommodation is best tested …
Monocularly
No blur
*lead of accommodation
*excessive accommodation
*spasm of accommodation
*pseudomyopia
during NPA, As the target brought closer, it becomes clearer thus will also revealed in MEM as Lead of accommodation
Accommodative excess or spasm

Minimum AOA
15 - 0.25 (age)
