    Fusional vergence amplitudes can be generated without monocular contours using random-dot stereograms. This finding indicates that diplopia from recognizable contours isn't required for fusional vergence.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neuroscience
    • Vision Science

    Background:

    • Fusional vergence is crucial for maintaining single binocular vision.
    • Previous understanding suggested monocular contours might be necessary for eliciting fusional vergence.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate if fusional vergence amplitudes can be produced without monocular contours.
    • To determine if random-dot stereograms can elicit vergence responses.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized random-dot stereograms to present visual stimuli.
    • Measured fusional vergence amplitudes in the absence of monocular contours.

    Main Results:

    • Random-dot stereograms successfully produced fusional vergence amplitudes.

  • These amplitudes were comparable to those measured clinically with traditional targets.
  • Vergence amplitudes were not artifacts of monocular contours from the target or instrument.

    • Conclusions:

    • Monocular contours are not essential for generating fusional vergence amplitudes.
    • Diplopia of recognizable monocular contours is not a prerequisite for fusional vergence.
