Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the functional effects of peripheral refractive errors on mobility performance through a stair negotiation task.
Methods: Twenty-one young, normal sighted subjects navigated through an obstacle with steps, wearing spectacles that altered only their peripheral refraction. Lenses were used to induce positive defocus (+2 diopters [D] and +4 D), negative defocus (-2 D and -4 D), or astigmatism (+1.
