Q

explain how stereopsis is created

A
  • Eyes located at different positions on the head —
  • Binocular vision results in two slightly different (disparate) images are projected to the retinas —
  • The disparities are processed in the visual cortex to yield depth perception (stereopsis) —
  • The perception of depth and 3-dimensional structure is, possible with information visible from one eye alone however not as vivid as
    stereopsis

Q

are binocular disparities always present?

A

when looking at 3D objects - yes

when looking at 2D objects- need to be simulated by presenting 2 different images to each eye

25
what is a qualitative method of measuring stereopsis? (total dissociation)
using the stereoscope or synoptophore
26
how does the synoptophore work?
each eye has a different viewing tube two images presented one to each eye ask px if the arrows are pointing more towards the clinician or the Px if px says the arrows are pointing more towards themselves- no stereopsis towards clinicians - stereopsis?
27
what are the methods of measuring stereopsis? (partial dissociation)
polarisation - Titmus (wire) - randot - mallet unit Red/green - TNO Optical -Lang
28
titmus test uses polarised glasses, why?
to reduce monocular cues
29
is the titmus test qualitative or quantitative?
can be both (fly is qualitative, animals and circles are quantitative)
30
what distance is the titmus test carried out at
40 cm or 16"
31
how many secs of arc is the fly in titmus?
3000
32
how many secs of arcs are the animals in titmus?
100-500
33
how many secs of arc are the circles in titmus?
40-500
34
if you rotate the titmus by 90, will your px have depth perception?
no- the wings should be flat - use this as a test to see if they are lying
35
does the randot test have monocular cues?
some due to part contour stimuli
36
does the part random dot principle part of the randot test provide monocular cues?
no
37
is randot test qualitative or quantitative?
quantitative
38
how many secs of arc does the randot test measure ?
500- 20
39
what viewing distance do you carry out the randot test at?
16" or 40 cm
40
explain the mallet unit test?
you have 2 rows of symbols, try to fuse the two rows using 3 base out prism when fused the shapes will stick out
41
how many secs of arc does the mallet unit test up to ?
10- 30
42
viewing distance of mallet unit ?
36 cm
43
why is it important to do the Mallett unit at 36 cm?
calibration will change with viewing distance
44
how do you dissociate the 2 eyes in the TNO test
use red/green glasses
45
how many screening plates in the TNO test
3
46
how many secs of arc do the screening plates in TNO test up to?
1980
47
how many quantitative plates are there in TNO test?
3 4 presentations on each plate – 2 presentations at each level
48
how many secs of arc do the quantitative plates test up to?
480-15
49
viewing distance of TNO test
40 cm
50
who is the TNO test good for?
children people with special needs wearing glasses
51
advantage of the TNO test
it tests up to 15 secs of arc with no monocular cues so good to use to test how good their stereopsis is
52
who is lang test good for?
toddlers and children
53
is lang a screening test?
yes
54
which shape is a control shop ein lang test?
star
55
how do you present lang plates
ask them what they can see
56
viewing distance for lang 1 and 2
40 cm
57
how many secs of arc does lang 1 test up to?
1200-550
58
how many secs of arc does lang 2 test up to?
600-200
59
which test have no dissociation
free space tests langs 2 pen frisby
60
what do free space test entail?
perception of real depth | no 2D simulation
61
what does the lang 2 pen test entail?
Patient and examiner each hold a pen vertically — Patient brings points of pens into contact — Cover one of patients eyes ◦ Repeat test — If accuracy poorer when using only one eye indicates presence of stereopsis under binocular conditions — Equal monocular and binocular response indicates absence of stereopsis
62
why is langs 2 pen test a useful clinical tool
test low grade BSV or gross/coarse stereopsis
63
is langs 2 pen quantitative or qualitative?
qualitative
64
what does the frisby test entail?
``` Random array of shapes — 4 squares of shapes per sheet — One square contains a central circle — Observe behaviour or ask question about circles — Turn around sheet ask again — Responses seen in infants as young as 6 months — ```
65
what thicknesses of sheets does the frisby test come in?
6mm, 3mm and 1 mm
66
which fribky sheet tests better level of stereoacuity
1mm
67
what is the disparity of a frisby sheet?
875-20"
68
how can you change the level of stereoacuity measurable by the frisby sheets?
- increase viewing distance from 30-80 cm | - change the sheet thickness
69
which test would you use for an under 2 year old?
land 1/2 or frisby
70
which test would you use for someone who is about to decompensate?
frisby or lang 1/2
71
which test would you use when you require the most accurate test and they are 8 years old?
TNO
72
which test would you use for a child refusing to wear glasses?
lang 1/2 or frisby
73
which test would you use for a home visit and you have no stereo-tests
lang 2 pen
