  • Title: [Localization disorders in squint amblyopia: horizontal line bisection and relative vertical localization].
    Author: Fronius M, Sireteanu R.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1992 Jul; 201(1):22-9. PubMed ID: 1513122.
    Abstract:
    We used two different procedures for the evaluation of spatial localization errors in strabismic and anisometropic amblyopes, strabismic alternators and normal control subjects: partitioning of horizontal lines and vertical alignment. We found defective spatial localization in the amblyopic eyes of squinters with both procedures. However, in the horizontal partitioning experiment, the control subjects also showed asymmetries between the two hemifields. Thus, there is no good baseline under these conditions for the results of the amblyopic eyes of squinters. Our results show that vertical alignment is the more appropriate procedure to quantify defective spatial localization in strabismic amblyopes.
