Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the distribution and correlation of accommodative lag with refractive error. Method: We had tested the clinical refraction and the accommodative lag in clinically normal 49 young adults (total 98 eyes) aged 18 to 25 years without abnormal binocular function. Monocular and binocular accommodative lag were tested with 0.50 D cross-cylinder lens and near vision test chart which had cross-hairs after full correction of LogMAR visual acuity over 0.05. Results: There was no statistical differences in monocular accommodative lag between right ($0.64{\pm}0.64$ D) and left eye ($0.63{\pm}0.64$)(p=0.858). The accommodative lag of male was higher than female and the range of the value was broader than female in binocular accommodative lag (p=0.015). The wider the inter-pupillary distance was, the higher the accommodative lag was (p=0.003). However, there were no differences with age (p=0.800) and dominant eye (p=0.402). The ranges of accommodative lag of low, middle, and high myopia were 0.75 ~ -0.25 D, 1.25 ~ -0.50 D, and 1.50 ~ -0.75 D, respectively, and the regression was 'y = -0.03953x+0.09205'. Conclusions: These data suggest that clinically normal young adults with high amounts of refractive error have more variable accommodative lag and increased spherical equivalent refraction.

Purpose: This study was to evaluate the clinical performance of 1-Day disposable toric soft contact lenses (TSCL) and to compare the visual performance with glasses and TSCL. Methods: In a two-week investigation of 'prism ballast' designed TSCL, occular refractions in 15 (30 eyes) healthy subjects were within the range of -2.75 D TO -8.00 D spherical power and -0.75 DC to -2.25 DC cylinderical power (with-the-rule). Subjects were assessed the clinical performance (orientation, centration, movement, tightness, rotation recovery, symptoms) of TSCL and compared binocular vision and contrast sensitivity with corrected glasses and TSCL at initial and two-week follow-up visits. Results: The prism-ballast design TSCL achieved better orientation, rotation recovery and symptoms over 2 week period. There was no statistically significant difference between spectacles and TSCL with respect to measuring binocular vision and contrast sensitivity. Conclusions: The clinical performance was good with prism-ballast design toric soft contact lenses. Evaluation of binocular vision and contrast sensitivity did not show the differences between spectacles and TSCL correction. This study suggests that TSCL wearers can be achieved similar visual performance for spectacles wearers.

The study of the visual acuity and refraction status was performed to the students of primary school using eyeglasses in Kyung Nam region, Korea. Two hundred sixty three subjects with various styles of ametropia were analyzed the visual acuity and refraction examination by the subjective and objective tools. The results of study were as follows; 1) According to the increase of age of subjects, the visual acuity of binocular in naked eyes was decrease. However ametropia was increase. 2) The high frequency of ametropia types in the binocular was simple myopia, and the next order of high frequency was mixed astigmatism, myopic compound astigmatism, simple hyperopia, and hyperopic compound, respectively. 3) On the power of spherical refractive error of ametropia, the high frequency was -1.00 diopter, and the next order of high frequency was -2.00 diopter, +2.00 diopter, -3.00 diopter, and so on, respectively. 4) According to the increase of subjects ages, the changes of dioptric power of myopic spheric power was increase. however the frequency of the boy and girl was similar results, also the dioptric values of refractive status in binocular was similar results. As the results of this study, we conclude that the relationship of the visual acuity and refractive error status in primary students using eyeglasses was improved.

In recent years, film and animation for cinematic release have embraced stereoscopic vision and the three-dimensional depth it creates for the viewer. The maturation of consumer-level virtual reality (VR) technology simultaneously spurred a wave of media productions set within 3D space, ranging from computer games to pornographic videos, to Academy Award-nominated animated VR short film Pearl. All of these works rely on stereoscopic fusion through stereopsis, that is, the perception of depth produced by the brain from left and right images with the amount of binocular parallax that corresponds to our eyes. They aim to emulate normal human vision. Within more experimental practices however, a fully rendered 3D space might not always be desirable. In my own abstract animation work, I tend to favour 2D flatness and the relative obfuscation of spatial relations it affords, as this underlines the visual abstraction I am pursuing. Not being able to immediately understand what is in front and what is behind can strengthen the desired effects. In 2015, Jeffrey Shaw challenged me to create a stereoscopic work for Animamix Biennale 2015-16, which he co-curated. This prompted me to question how stereoscopy, rather than hyper-defining space within three dimensions, might itself be used to achieve a confusion of spatial perception. And in turn, how abstract and experimental moving image practices can benefit from stereoscopy to open up new visual and narrative opportunities, if used in ways that break with, or go beyond stereoscopic fusion. Noteworthy works which exemplify a range of non-traditional, expanded approaches to binocular vision will be discussed below, followed by a brief introduction of the stereoscopic animation loop III=III which I created for Animamix Biennale. The techniques employed in these works might serve as a toolkit for artists interested in exploring a more experimental, expanded engagement with stereoscopy.

Purpose: The purposes of this study are to investigate accommodative response among emmetropes, spectacle wearer and contact lens wearer, and correlation between refractive error and accommodative respons for each group. Methods: The 72 subjects(144 eyes) who do not have any ocular diseases were participate in this study. Subjects were categorized into emmetropes, spectacle wearer and contact lens wearer by refractive error using closed-field auto-refractometer. We measured dominant eye, naked/habitual visual acuity and refractive error of monocular/binocular vision of refractive error for far/near distance with open-field auto-refractometer and calculated accommodative lag. Results: There were no significant difference of accommodative lag between right and left eye dominant and non-dominant eye, monocular and binocular vision, and spectacle lens wearer and contact lens wearer, However the accommodative lag of binocular vision was severe than monocular vision at near. The lag of myopia was larger than emmetropes, and male was larger than female. Significant correlation was found between refractive error and accommodative lag in total subjects and the same result was found in emmetropes and contact lens wearer. However there were no significant correlation in the spectacle wearer. Conclusions: There were significant difference between emmetrops and myopes in terms of accommodative lag, however accommodative lag of spectacle wearer was not different with contact lens wearer in myopes. There were also significant correlation between refractive error and accommodative lag in emmetropes and contact lens wearer, but the accommodative lag of spectacle wearer was not significantly correlated with refractive error.

Recent development of 3D technologies made it possible that observers perceive 3D depth from two dimensional images. Despite this kind of technological development, when observers watch 3D display they experience 3D visual fatigue that they do not usually experience in real life. It is critical to measure visual fatigue in order to overcome the problem of 3D visual fatigue. The purpose of the present study was to develop a protocol to measure 3D visual fatigue based on an EEG signal and to examine its validity. The first experiment explored the possible ERP components that reflected visual fatigue in 2D and 3D conditions. The second experiment examined whether the feature of the component found in the first experiment was affected by the amount of binocular disparity. Both in Cz and Pz channels, the peak amplitude of P3 component was much lower in 3D rather than in 2D conditions, and it decreased as the amount of binocular disparity increased. The subjective 3D visual fatigue also increased with the amount of binocular disparity. These results imply that the peak amplitude of P3 component at Cz and Pz channels can be used as an index of 3D visual fatigue.

Purpose: The purpose of this controlled study was to determine the effectiveness of vision therapy for accommodative infacility in children. Methods: 10 children 9 to 13 years of age with symptomatic accommodative infacility were divided into a treatment group (n=6) and a contol group (n=4). The treatment group received 12 weeks of vision therapy while the control group received nothing. Results: The visual symptom assessed by COVD-QOL score for the treatment group showed both statistically and clinically significant reduction from 27.50${\pm}$5.68 to 12.00${\pm}$7.24 (p<0.01). Also, there were statistically and clinically significant improvement in the clinical measures of monocular accommodative facility of right eye (from 0.67${\pm}$1.03 cpm to 15.42${\pm}$4.85 cpm; p<0.001) and binocular accommodative facility (from 0.33${\pm}$0.82 cpm to 13.92${\pm}$3.58 cpm; p<0.001). In contrast, there were no significant improvement in symptoms and in the clinical measures of monocular and binocular accommodative facility for the control group (p>0.05). Conclusion: Vision therapy is an effective mode of treatment in eliminating symptoms and improving accommodative facility in children with accommodative infacility.
