Vr-Phore: A Novel Virtual Reality System For Diagnosis Of Binocular Vision

Binocular vision (BV) is the result of fusion between inputs from each eye to form a coherent image. BV anomalies are evaluated using different diagnostic tests and instruments. One such instrument is the Synoptophore, which evaluates three grades of By. This equipment though efficient has certain limitations like ambient light while testing, bulky and expensive. We propose VR-Phore, application of a VR head-mounted display for diagnostics based on principle of the haploscope similar to Synoptophore. The proposed system addresses the limitations of Synoptophore with added advantage of a software platform to incorporate testing modules for a range of clinical conditions.
