“…Accurate determination of ocular dominance is useful in clinical decision-making, as it relates to monovision management of presbyopia [37][38][39] with intraocular lens implant in cataract surgery, 40,41 contact lenses, 39,42 or LASIK. 43,44 The determination of ocular dominance has mainly been based on sighting dominance, which takes little time to perform.…”

PURPOSE. To quantify ocular sensory dominance and investigate its relationship to stereopsis. METHOD.A total of 69 subjects participated in the study. Ocular dominance was measured by a continuous flashing technique, with the tested eye viewing a Gabor patch increasing in contrast, and the fellow eye viewing a Mondrian noise decreasing in contrast. In each trial, the log ratio of Mondrian to Gabor's contrasts was recorded as a subject first detected the Gabor. We collected 50 trials for each eye and an interocular difference was analyzed with a rank-sum test. The z-value was used as the ocular dominance index (ODI) to quantify the degree of ocular dominance. A subject with ODI ‡ 2 was categorized as having a clear ocular dominance, and a subject with ODI < 2 was considered as having balanced eyes (unclear dominance). The stereoacuity was measured with random dot patterns with durations varying from 50 to 1000 ms. The best achievable stereoacuity (D min ) and the integration time needed to acquire that (T min ) were calculated. RESULTS.A total of 30 subjects had balanced eyes and 39 had clear ocular dominance. T min was significantly longer in subjects with clear ocular dominance than in subjects with balanced eyes (180.18 vs. 121.17 ms, P < 0.01). T min was positively correlated with ODI (P < 0.01). However, D min in subjects with clear dominance was not different from that in subjects with balanced eyes (40.60 vs. 35.73 arcsec, P ¼ 0.18).CONCLUSIONS. Ocular dominance is not associated with how fine the stereoacuity is, but rather how quickly the best stereoacuity is acquired.

“…Seventy-six percent of patients with a macular hole in their dominant eye presented due to symptoms, whereas only 36% with a macular hole in their nondominant eye presented due to symptoms. 14 The relationship between ocular dominance and patient satisfaction with monovision by intraocular lens implantation has been investigated by Handa et al, 15 who determined ocular dominance using the distance hole-in-the-card sighting dominance test and a binocular rivalry balance sensory dominance technique. The authors conclude that strength of sighting dominance seems to be an important factor for patient satisfaction with monovision.…”

“…Recently, this technique was adapted for laser refractive surgery in patients older than 40 years, while correcting the myopic patient or overcorrecting the hyperopic patient, as well as, for patients with bilateral cataract (6)(7) . Once the crystalline lens is removed, there is a loss of accommodation creating a population of pseudophakic presbyopes.…”
