The Analysis Of The Results From Two Commonly Used Optometric Tests As They Relate To Patient's Binocular Vision Symptoms.

For the study we looked at horizontal phorias, accommodative and vergence facility, horizontal vergence ranges, accommodative state and amplitude, near point of convergence, and various tests of fixation disparity. In addition we evaluated refractive e"or, vertical phoria, anisophoria, aniseikonia, and cyclophoria. From this large battery of test data we chose to analyze the results of two tests, which are commonly used in the assessment of patients with binocular vision symptoms. This paper focuses on the results of accommodative facility and the patients near phoria and examines those results in the light of items from a symptoms questionnaire.
