Is stereopsis essential to be a competent ophthalmic surgeon
نویسنده
چکیده
No study was found which could directly answer the above question, indeed there were hardly any studies of stereoscopic vision in ophthalmologists at all. There was however a prospective study correlating stereo-vision of dental students, on admission to the course, with subsequent performance in preclinical operative dentistry which showed that a high degree of stereopsis as assessed by the TNO test was not a prerequisite for success in acquiring practical dental skills (1).

متن کاملDrilling into the functional significance of stereopsis: the impact of stereoscopic information on surgical performance
PURPOSE One suggested advantage of human binocular vision is the facilitation of sophisticated motor control behaviours via stereopsis - but little empirical evidence exists to support this suggestion. We examined the functional significance of stereopsis by exploring whether stereopsis is used to perform a highly skilled real-world motor task essential for the occupational practice of dentistr...

Many aspects of vision have been investigated in developmental dyslexia. Some research suggests deficits in vergence control (e.g. Buzzelli, 1991, Optom. Vision Sci. 68, 842-846), although ability to control vergence across saccades has not yet been investigated. We have explored this question indirectly using Enright's (1996 Vision Res. 36, 307-312.) sequential stereopsis task. The task requir...

Backgrounds and Objective: Stereoacuity is due to a relative difference between images because of retinal disparity. Measurment of stereoacuity is important for diagnosis and treatment of binocular anomalies and noerological problems. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of induced heterophoria by base-out and base-in prisms on distance stereopsis by the Three Needle Test. Material...
