Development and Validation of a Novel Stereoacuity Test Using Head-mounted Display

• Conditions: Normal Healthy Volunteers

• Registration Number: NCT03234504
• Lead Sponsor: Yonsei University

Brief Summary

This prospective study investigated the validity and test-retest reliability of stereopsis test using head-mount display (HMD). Contour-based circles (crossed disparity: 1,960 to 195 arc of seconds(arc secs)) were generated as separate images on a high resolution phone display (Galaxy S7; Samsung, Suwon, Korea) using a HMD (Galaxy Gear VR; Samsung, Suwon, Korea). Two images were independently projected to each eye as graded circles with random dot background. While the position of the stimulus changed from among 3 possible locations, the subjects were instructed to select the circle with disparity by pressing the corresponding position on a keypad. The results of the new HMD stereotest were compared to those from standard Randot and TNO stereotests.

Study & Design

• Study Type: OBSERVATIONAL
• Study Design: Not specified

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Correlation between stereopsis with head mount display and stereopsis with Randot or TNO test	one visit	Stereopsis results was expressed as arc sec. The association between log arc sec in stereopsis with HMD display and Randot or TNO test were evaluated. Using Bland Altman plot, the mean differences between two stereopsis results were compared.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Test-retest variability of stereopsis using head mount display	one visit	The intraclass coefficient was calculated between initial head mount display stereopsis result and retests.
