COMPUTER BASED EYE TRACKER FOR DETECTION OF MANIFEST STRABISMUS

Strabismus is a common disorder in which eyes are not aligned with their optical axis, resulting in an abnormal binocular interaction, thus leading to amblyopia. Accordingly, early detection and diagnosis are mandatory. Despite technology development and constant knowledge growth, the foundations of...

Sumario:Strabismus is a common disorder in which eyes are not aligned with their optical axis, resulting in an abnormal binocular interaction, thus leading to amblyopia. Accordingly, early detection and diagnosis are mandatory. Despite technology development and constant knowledge growth, the foundations of physiology and the diagnosis of strabismus were set back in the 19(th) or early 20(th) century and have not changed since. In this paper, a novel, properly tested and evaluated eye-tracking based method for manifest strabismus diagnosis is presented. The evaluation showed the aforementioned method to have both high sensitivity and specificity in detecting manifest strabismus without the need for a skilled examiner, thus being suitable for population screening and highlighting the need for future research regarding testing of latent strabismus.
