  • Purpose: In this study we measured the mean value of the distance stereoacutiy for adult subjects and evaluated the variation of the distance stereoacuity according to correction of phoria using the Pola Test E-II of Carl Zeiss. Methods: We investigated the distance stereoacuity for 50 adults (male: 29, female: 21) ranging in age from 19 to 46 years using D6 Circle chart and D8 Line chart in the Pola Test E-II. Results: The mean values of the distance stereoacuity measured on the D6 Circle test and D8 Line test were 159.6 and 149.4 seconds of arc respectively. The mean variations of the distance stereoacuity according to correction of phoria in D6 Circle test were increased 43.2 seconds of arc in exophoria and 51 seconds of arc in esophoria, and those in D8 Line test were increased 42 seconds of arc in exophoria and 70.2 seconds of arc in esophoria. Conclusions: We knew from these results that the distance stereoacuity after prescription of phoria improved more esophoria than exophoria.

  • In order to have a comfortable vision without any asthenopia in work place, it is very necessary to make a complete binocular correction in addition to the perfect correction of refractive deficits. For this, At first, the exact understanding of the required corrective value of the existing angular ametropia(associated phoria) is needed. The fact likely seems fact that a correction of refractive deficits could not to be reached with single optotype, the corrections of angular ametropia(associated phoria) with single optotype is impossible. The reason is that a most ametropia(associated phoria) is accompanied with the fixation disparity. To make a perfect measurement of ametropia(associated phoria), at least, 3 kinds of optotype is essential. This fact could be explained by stating the fusional stimulus in the binocular refraction tests on each eye. If these types of three tests have not practical practice. The most of many cases may result in undercorrection.
