3. Thresholds for analysis.
Test type categories | Tests included | Output measure | Threshold to extract data |
1) Tests which identify ocular misalignment | 1.1) Corneal reflections tests: Hirschberg, Krimsky (prism reflection test). 1.2) Fundus reflections test: Brückner. | Prism dioptres (PD). | 8 PD for horizontal deviations; 1 PD for vertical deviations (no published threshold identified). |
2) Test of binocular function: stereopsis | Stereoacuity tests such as contour and random dot stereotests. | Seconds of arc. | 400 seconds of arc. |
3) Tests designed to detect reduced ventral vision | 3.1) Visual acuity tests, e.g. HOTV, LEA symbols, Keeler (previously Glasgow) crowded logMAR, Sonksen crowded logMAR, crowded Kay picture test. 3.2) Suppression tests. 3.3) Blur test. |
LogMAR or logMAR equivalent. |
0.2 logMAR. |
4) Automated refraction devices designed to report ocular misalignment | ‐ | Millimetres of asymmetry or corneal reflections. | No published threshold identified. |
