Abstract
Provided herein is an orthoptic method of improving depth-perception in an individual. Devices, systems and kits for performing the present method are also provided.
Claims37
An orthoptic method comprising:
- i) displaying one or more stereoscopic objects on a user interface configured to present one or more depth-perception tasks for an individual to perform during a first time period, wherein each of the one or more depth-perception tasks has a difficulty level for the individual to perform each of the one or more depth-perception tasks, and each stereoscopic object is associated with one or more monocular depth cues and one or more binocular depth cues, and wherein a strength of the monocular depth cues is correlated with the difficulty level;
- and
- ii) titrating the strength of the monocular depth cues during the first time period in a manner sufficient to reduce a dependence of the individual on the monocular depth cues for performing the one or more depth-perception tasks.
An orthoptic system comprising:
- a processor;
- a user interface configured to display one or more stereoscopic objects to an individual and further configured to present one or more depth-perception tasks for an individual to perform during a first time period, wherein each of the one or more depth-perception tasks has a difficulty level for the individual to perform each of the one or more depth-perception tasks, and each stereoscopic object is associated with one or more monocular depth cues and one or more binocular depth cues, and wherein a strength of the monocular depth cues is correlated with the difficulty level;
- and
- a non-transient computer-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by the processor causes the user interface to:
- display the one or more objects on the user interface;
- and
- titrate the strength of the monocular depth cues during the first time period in a manner sufficient to reduce a dependence of the individual on the monocular depth cues for performing the one or more depth-perception tasks.
