Background: The aim was to analyse the prevalence of symptomatic accommodative and non-strabismic binocular dysfunctions in a randomised population of university subjects.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a randomised sample of 175 university students aged between 18 and 35 years. All subjects were given a visual examination in which their symptoms were recorded, as well as performing objective and subjective refractive examinations and accommodative and binocular tests.
Article Synopsis
- * Out of the participants, 44.6% reported symptoms, with "visual fatigue" being the most common, but there was no significant link found between accommodative dysfunctions and symptoms.
- * Students with binocular dysfunctions were found to be more likely to report symptoms, especially when diagnosed with definite binocular dysfunctions, suggesting that more clinical signs correlate with increased symptom severity.
Purpose: To determine the symptoms associated with accommodative and non-strabismic binocular dysfunctions and to assess the methods used to obtain the subjects' symptoms.
Methods: We conducted a scoping review of articles published between 1988 and 2012 that analysed any aspect of the symptomatology associated with accommodative and non-strabismic binocular dysfunctions. The literature search was performed in Medline (PubMed), CINAHL, PsycINFO and FRANCIS.
