  • Title: [Errors of monocular localization in strabismic amblyopia. Two-dimensional distortion].
    Author: Lagrèze WD, Sireteanu R.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1992 Aug; 201(2):92-6. PubMed ID: 1434387.
    Abstract:
    Spatial distortions, i.e. spatial localization errors, and precision of localization were measured monocularly in the central visual field of 7 normal observers, 17 strabismic amblyopes and 2 anisometropic amblyopes. The task of the subjects was to construct circles of 2 degrees, 4 degrees and 6 degrees radius around a fixation point, using the dominant and the amblyopic eye in turn. Normal observers set distances on the vertical meridian smaller than distances on the horizontal meridian. Anisometropic amblyopes showed localization errors and variances similar to those of normal observers. The amblyopic eyes of strabismic observers with a large angle strabismus and deep amblyopia showed significant, individually different localization errors correlating with the depth of amblyopia. Strabismics with microstrabismus exhibited parallels between monocular localization and dichoptic retinal correspondence.
