The effort of implementing realistic 3-D depth on 2-D images has been continued persistently with a theoretical understanding of depth perception and its related technical development. The present article briefly reviews a number of popular stereoscopes for studying stereoscopic depth perception according to their implementation principles, and introduces a behavioral experiment as a technical example in which the active-shutter glasses were used. In the present study, participants were tested for their visual memory against perceived depth among a set of items. The depth of the memory and test items was manipulated to be 1) monocular, 2) binocular, or 3) both-monocular-and-binocular respectively. The memory performance was worst in the binocular-depth condition, and best however in the both-monocular-and-binocular condition. These results indicate that visual memory may benefit more from monocular depth than stereoscopic depth, and further suggest that the storage of depth information into visual memory would require both binocular and monocular information for its optimal memory performance.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between non-strabismic binocular dysfunctions and academic achievement for primary school children. Methods: A total of 1,123 parents and their children aged 8-13 years responded to the College of Optometrists in Vision Development Quality of Life (COVD-QOL) questionnaire. Among the all participants, 123 children who have ${\geq}20$ of visual symptom scores, no amblyopia, no strabismus, no any ocular and systemic pathology, and no contact lenses wearing were chosen for this study finally. Binocular functions were evaluated for final subjects. Results: Of 123 primary school children who have criteria-eligible symptoms 93 had non-strabismic binocular dysfunctions. Accommodative dysfunction was significantly correlated to subjects of science and English, and vergence dysfunction was also significantly correlated to Korean, mathematics, social science, science and English in the final subjects. Conclusions: Correlations between academic achievement and accommodative/vergence dysfunctions were statistically significant. Therefore, accommodative/vergence dysfunctions may be factors to affect academic achievement.

Despite dynamical retinal image changes caused by pursuit eye movements, we usually perceive the stable spatial properties of the environment suite successfully Helmholtz and his followers have suggested that the visual system coordinates the retinal and extraretinal eye position information to represent the spatial properties of the environment. However. there have been a significant amount of researches showing that this kind of mechanism may not operate perfectly, and the pursuit eye movement employed in those researches were limited to conjugate eye movements. When an observer tracks an object moving away from the observer with his/her eyes. the two eyes rotate in opposite direction. and this kind of disjunctive eye movement may produce undesirable binocular disparities for the objects in the background. The present study examined whether the visual system compensated for the undesirable binocular disparities caused by disjunctive eye movements with extraretinal eye position information. Although the target object was presented frontoparellely to the subjects. the subjects reported that the object was slanted toward (or alway from) them in consistent with the undesirable binocular disparities produced by the disjunctive eye movements. These results imply that the visual system may not perfectly compensate for the undesirable binocular disparities with extraretinal eye position information.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the degree of heterophoria variations according to visual fatigue induced by increasing number of examinations while repeating binocular vision examinations. Twenty - one adults in their twenties who had no heterotropia other eye disease or systemic disease underwent binocular vision examinations. As the examinations progressed, the degree of heterophoria increased in both orthophoria and heterophoria. When the distance examinations was repeated 5 times, orthophoria increased degree of $1.56{\Delta}$ heterophoria. and heterophoria increased degree of $1.63{\Delta}$ heterophoria. When the near examinations was repeated 5 times, orthophoria increased degree of $1.78{\Delta}$ heterophoria. and heterophoria increased degree of $2{\Delta}$ heterophoria.. As the number of examinations increased, the result gradually deviated from the normal range as visual fatigue increased. The degree of the variation is judged to be enough to make the wrong prescription in the clinic. In conclusion, it was found that the binocular vision examinations should be conducted more accurately and promptly.

It is formed of 3D image stereopsis by the left right retina image's fusion and can be made 3D-Stereogram because of occuring the depth perception of binocular disparity. We made the 3D-stereogram of the object of shape a ball and the eyes by taking a photograph of the light source's position angle contrast of the binocular disparity's field angle. We examined that 3D-stereogram was to be the stereopsis.

Eye examination was performed for diagnosis accommodative and binocular dysfunction. The prevalence rates were similar to other studies, therefore patients required not just the correction of the refractive error but a specific treatment for each diagnosed problems. Two symptomatic(diplopia, asthenopia, and intermittent blur) patients diagnosed as a convergence insufficiency was given full correction with visual training for 4weeks. They had a one or mixed binocular problems included accommodative insufficiency. Following 4 weeks later, visual training was effective to Improve convergence and suggest that continuous observation is necessary.

A binocular robot vision system having an autonomously moving active viewpoint is proposed. By using this active viewpoint, the system constructs a correspondence between the images of a feature points on the right and left retinas and calculates the spatial coordinates of the feature points. The system incorporates a function of detecting straight lines in an image. To detect lines the system uses Hough transform. The system searches a region surrounded by 4 straight lines. Then the system recognizes the region as a quadrangle. The system constructs a correspondence between the quadrangles in the right and left images. By the use of the result of the constructed correspondence, the system calculates the spatial coordinates of an object. An experiment shows the effect of the line detection using Hough transform, the recognition of the surface of the object and the calculation of the spatial coordinates of the object.

To put the binocular 3-D images system into practical use, it is required to investigate the relationship between the system and men and to make ergonomic evaluation of the system. In this study, we perform a comparative analysis of the changes in the accommodation and pupil functions before and afer observing binocular 3-D images a sthe visual distance varies. From the experiment, we obtained the following results: (1) The discordance in the distance informatioons on the accommodation and pupil functions when obwerving 3-D images is compensated by the miosis and altering the focal depth. (2) From the consideration of the effect of the visual distance condition on the visual functions, it is thoughth that the visual functions are stabilized at the dark focus in the sense that the changes in the tension and relazation afer observing the 3-D images are minimized.

We constructed 3-D images by HMD (Head Mount Display) type and polarization technique through which a training instrument of binocular function based on clinical vision therapy was developed and investigated its demand. To design the instrument that performs Test- Diagnosis - (Prescription) - Training - Treatment we provided a customized training method for the trainers using optical IT instruments of binocular test. Through the contents and the instruments of the vision therapy technology developed in this work we can replace the current vision test instruments to those costing 60% lower price in eye clinics and eye glasses shops. By replacing the existing vision test instruments it is possible to create a new market of the vision therapy in vision training instruments.
