  • Title: [Value of the stereoscopic tests in the detection of sensorimotor anomalies in children].
    Author: Casu L, Demartis M, Pilia AR, Cavallini GM.
    Journal: J Fr Ophtalmol; 1984; 7(12):819-22. PubMed ID: 6534950.
    Abstract:
    Limitations and advantages of the stereotests are briefly discussed. In this trial, two stereotests (TNO and Frisby) have been tested in 3 groups of patients: group 1 was composed of 180 cases with normal binocular vision; group 2 of 312 patients with known ocular motility disorders: group 3 of 186 patients with unknown sensorimotor status. The utility of the two stereotests in detecting ocular motility disorders and/or amblyopia is uncertain when used alone. Because of a high number of false positives and false negatives the tests are best used in conjunction with other clinical tests of ocular sensorimotor function.
