TNO stereopsis test as an aid to the prevention of amblyopia

In this investigation, carried out under a Youth Health Care postgraduate course in Nijmegen, the stereopsis of a school population of 730 children, aged 4-18 years, was recorded and clinically evaluated. Stereopsis was measured using the TNO test, a random-dot stereo test especially designed for the early detection of amblyopia. The main aims...

A closer look at the tritanopic convergence point

On the basis of new experimental data of tritanopic vision the convergence centre for tritanopia has been redetermined, and has turned out to bex' = 0.1747,y' = 0.0060 in the Judd 1951-chromaticity diagram. A consequence of this determination is that the blue system is more sensitive than was concluded from the Thomson-Wright (1953) study. The...

An analytical description of the line element in the zone-fluctuation model of colour vision. Part II. The derivation of the line element

On the basis of the concepts, discussed in Part I of this study, a line element is developed to describe colour discrimination data. First the simple case of unsaturated neural data transmission is treated. Then complicating effects of saturation and supersaturation are introduced. The goodness of fit with shapes and orientation of JND-ellipses...
