  • Title: [Use of Pulfrich's stereo-phenomenon in determining stereoscopic vision].
    Author: Kowalczyk A, Bieganowski L.
    Journal: Klin Oczna; 1996; 98(4):291-3. PubMed ID: 9463121.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: To check whether a test based on Pulfrich's stereophenomenon can be applied to determine stereopsy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The group of 24 patients with normal visual acuity and stereopsy and 15 with ambylopia without stereopsy were tested with Pulfrich's pendulum test. RESULTS: This method yielded 24 positive and 15 negative cases confirming the previous assessments. Neither false positive nor false negative cases were recorded. CONCLUSION: The simplicity and reliability of this method in determining stereopsy provide arguments for its widespread use.
