| Summary: |
Purpose: The aim of this study was, to
analyse the results of accommodation range measurement obtained in groups of patients of
different age. Wavefront aberrometer was used for evaluation of accommodation range of the
patients eyes.
Material and methods: The accommodation range was analysed in 200 eyes in
100 patients. The examined group of patients was divided into 4 groups, depending on the
patients age.
Group I - age: 20-30 years old; group II - age: 31-40 years old; group III - age:
41-50 years old; group IV - age: 51--60 years old. The measurements were analysed using
WASCA System depend on: refractive error, sex and difference of pupil diameter for far and
near vision.
Results: Different ranges of accommodation were obtained. We did not
observe any correlation between the accommodation range and the sex and refractive error.
We noticed statistically significant differences between the accommodation range and pupil
diameter, as well as the patients' age.
Conclusions: The WASCA System is a device, which can be used for analysis
of accommodation range. This system gives us the possibility, to trace changes of eye
accommodation range in the long period of time. |
