Does an iPad fixation disparity test give equivalent results to the Mallett near fixation disparity test?

摘要

Various instruments have been developed to measure aligning prism, the prism that eliminates a fixation disparity (associated heterophoria). This includes the established Mallett near vision unit and recently developed Thomson Vision Toolbox on the iPad. With no previous research investigating the agreement between these instruments, practitioners may question if they can be used interchangeably.
