Evaluation of a Novel Virtual Reality Simulated Alternate Cover Test to Assess Strabismus: A Prospective, Masked Study
A prototype VR simulated alternate cover test showed a moderate but significant correlation with the gold standard sensorimotor examination and correlation was strong in those with esotropia and constant deviations. While the level of agreement demonstrated by this novel VR technology is promising, further improvements are needed before clinical deployment. However, this study demonstrates that VR has the potential to expand our ability to detect, measure, and monitor strabismus.
