  • Binocular Vision
    BINOCULAR VISION Rahul Bhola, MD Pediatric Ophthalmology Fellow The University of Iowa Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences posted Jan. 18, 2006, updated Jan. 23, 2006 Binocular vision is one of the hallmarks of the human race that has bestowed on it the supremacy in the hierarchy of the animal kingdom. It is an asset with normal alignment of the two eyes, but becomes a liability when the alignment is lost. Binocular Single Vision may be defined as the state of simultaneous vision, which is achieved by the coordinated use of both eyes, so that separate and slightly dissimilar images arising in each eye are appreciated as a single image by the process of fusion. Thus binocular vision implies fusion, the blending of sight from the two eyes to form a single percept. Binocular Single Vision can be: 1. Normal – Binocular Single vision can be classified as normal when it is bifoveal and there is no manifest deviation. 2. Anomalous - Binocular Single vision is anomalous when the images of the fixated object are projected from the fovea of one eye and an extrafoveal area of the other eye i.e. when the visual direction of the retinal elements has changed. A small manifest strabismus is therefore always present in anomalous Binocular Single vision. Normal Binocular Single vision requires: 1. Clear Visual Axis leading to a reasonably clear vision in both eyes 2. The ability of the retino-cortical elements to function in association with each other to promote the fusion of two slightly dissimilar images i.e. Sensory fusion. 3. The precise co-ordination of the two eyes for all direction of gazes, so that corresponding retino-cortical element are placed in a position to deal with two images i.e.

She was able to walk and talk. MRI was negative. Not long after she notices symptoms of not being able to read correctly, headaches, motion sickness is much worse than normal, she can’t go back to work on the computer, she is very tentative about driving.

  • 20/20 VISION Part I: Eyesight, Perception and Vision
    20/20 VISION Part I: Eyesight, perception and vision In this first part of our three-part exploration of 20/20 vision, we are going to look at our physical eyes and how they work. Then we will explore perception and how the brain actually converts all that sensory information into images. Finally, we will look at some of the techniques for improving our vision naturally and ask if these really work. 20/20 vision is a term used to express normal visual acuity (the clarity or sharpness of vision) measured at a distance of 20 feet. ... If you have 20/100 vision, it means that you must be as close as 20 feet to see what a person with normal vision can see at 100 feet. Having 20/20 vision does not necessarily mean you have perfect vision. 20/20 vision only indicates the sharpness or clarity of vision at a distance. Other important vision skills, including peripheral awareness or side vision, eye coordination, depth perception, focusing ability and colour vision, contribute to your overall visual ability. Some people can see well at a distance but are unable to bring nearer objects into focus. This condition can be caused by hyperopia (far-sightedness) or presbyopia (loss of focusing ability). Others can see items that are close but cannot see those far away. This condition may be caused by myopia (near-sightedness). Is it possible to see better than 20/20? Yes, it's indeed possible to have sharper than 20/20 vision. In fact, most people with young, healthy eyes are capable of identifying at least some of the letters on the 20/15 line or even smaller letters on the Snellen chart.

  • Perceived Speed of Motion in Depth Is Reduced in the Periphery
    Vision Research 40 (2000) 3507–3516 www.elsevier.com/locate/visres Perceived speed of motion in depth is reduced in the periphery K. Brooks *, G. Mather Experimental Psychology, Biology School, Uni6ersity of Sussex, Brighton BN19QG, UK Received 24 February 1999; received in revised form 30 November 1999 Abstract The perceived speed of motion in depth (MID) for a monocularly visible target was measured in central and peripheral vision using a 2AFC speed discrimination task. Only binocular cues to MID were available: changing disparity and interocular velocity difference (IOVD). Perceived speed for monocular lateral motion and perceived depth for static disparity were also assessed, again in both central and peripheral vision. The purpose of the experiment was to assess the relative contributions of changing disparity and IOVD cues to the perceived speed of stereomotion. Although peripheral stimuli appeared to lie at approximately the same depth as their central counterparts, their apparent speed was reduced. Monocular/lateral and binocular/MID speeds were reduced to a similar extent. It seems that reduced apparent monocular speed leads to reduced perceived MID speed, despite the fact that the disparity system appears to be unaffected. These results suggest that the IOVD cue makes a significant contribution to MID speed perception. © 2000 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.

  • Perceiving Self-Motion in Depth: the Role of Stereoscopic Motion and Changing-Size Cues
    Perception & Psychophysics 1996,58 (8), JJ68-JJ76 Perceiving self-motion in depth: The role of stereoscopic motion and changing-size cues STEPHEN PALMISANO University ofNew South Wales, Kensington, New South Wales, Australia During self-motions, different patterns of optic flow are presented to the left and right eyes. Previ­ ous research has, however, focused mainly on the self-motion information contained in a single pattern of optic flow. The present experiments investigated the role that binocular disparity plays in the visual perception of self-motion, showing that the addition of stereoscopic cues to optic flow significantly im­ proves forward linear vection in central vision. Improvements were also achieved by adding changing­ size cues to sparse (but not dense) flow patterns. These findings showedthat assumptions in the head­ ing literature that stereoscopic cues facilitate self-motion only when the optic flow has ambiguous depth ordering do not apply to vection. Rather, it was concluded that both stereoscopic and changing­ size cues provide additional motion-in-depth information that is used in perceiving self-motion.
