    This study refutes Maddox's traditional theory of vergence components and presents a new model for binocular interaction. Experimental evidence supports this alternative theory, advancing our understanding of visual motor control.

    Area of Science:

    • Vision science
    • Neuroscience
    • Ophthalmology

    Background:

    • Classical theories of the visual motor near triad often assume specific interactions between blur-driven and disparity-driven vergence.
    • Maddox's model is a foundational theory in understanding these binocular interactions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine classical theories of vergence components.
    • To challenge a key assumption in Maddox's traditional model of vergence.
    • To propose and provide evidence for an alternative theory of binocular interaction.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of classical theories and their underlying assumptions.
    • Presentation of experimental evidence.
    • Development and outlining of a new theoretical framework for binocular interaction.

    Main Results:

    • One necessary assumption of Maddox's traditional vergence theory was refuted by experimental evidence.
    • An alternative theory for binocular interaction was proposed.

    Conclusions:

    • The findings necessitate a re-evaluation of traditional models of vergence control.
    • The proposed alternative theory offers a new perspective on the interplay of visual motor components.
