  2. Convergence insufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_insufficiency

    In some cases, convergence insufficiency can be the underlying cause of difficulty learning to read. As a result of the eyes not converging on the same point for sustained periods of time when reading, words can appear blurry or double because the brain is receiving two different images. Convergence insufficiency is not a learning disability.

  3. Depth perception - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_perception

    The convergence will stretch the extraocular muscles – the receptors for this are muscle spindles. As happens with the monocular accommodation cue, kinesthetic sensations from these extraocular muscles also help in distance and depth perception. The angle of convergence is smaller when the eye is fixating on objects which are far away.

  4. Random dot stereogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_dot_stereogram

    To view the stereogram, use a stereoscope to present the left image to the left eye and the right image to the right eye or focus on a point behind the image to achieve the same thing. (How to achieve this wall-eyed position of the eyes is described in Autostereogram). The shifted region of random dots will appear as a small, central, square ...

  5. Accommodation reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accommodation_reflex

    Light from a single point of a distant object and light from a single point of a near object being brought to a focus. The accommodation reflex (or accommodation-convergence reflex) is a reflex action of the eye, in response to focusing on a near object, then looking at a distant object (and vice versa), comprising coordinated changes in vergence, lens shape (accommodation) and pupil size.

  6. Stereopsis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereopsis

    In stereopsis tests (short: stereotests), slightly different images are shown to each eye, such that a 3D image is perceived in case stereovision is present. This can be achieved by means of vectographs (visible with polarized glasses), anaglyphs (visible with red-green glasses), lenticular lenses (visible with the naked eye), or head-mounted ...

  7. Autostereogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereogram

    A stereoscope presents 2D images of the same object from slightly different angles to the left eye and the right eye, allowing the viewer to reconstruct the original object via binocular disparity. When viewed with the proper vergence, an autostereogram does the same, the binocular disparity existing in adjacent parts of the repeating 2D patterns.

  8. Visual system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_system

    The visual system performs a number of complex tasks based on the image forming functionality of the eye, including the formation of monocular images, the neural mechanisms underlying stereopsis and assessment of distances to (depth perception) and between objects, motion perception, pattern recognition, accurate motor coordination under visual ...

  9. Aniseikonia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aniseikonia

    Aniseikonia is an ocular condition where there is a significant difference in the perceived size of images. It can occur as an overall difference between the two eyes, or as a difference in a particular meridian. [1] If the ocular image size in both eyes are equal, the condition is known as iseikonia. [2]
