Overview

Demonstrates that slower computerized vergence therapy significantly improves outcomes in a controlled population, suggesting optimal training strategies.

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of computerized vergence therapy and compare the impact of different training speeds.
  • Participants included 12 subjects split into two training velocity groups and a control group.
  • One group received slow vergence training at 0.75 Δ/s, while another received fast training at 5.00 Δ/s.
  • Therapy lasted 80 minutes over 4 weeks, with all activities monitored and evaluations double masked.
  • Subjects using slow training rates showed significant increases in positive vergence ranges.
  • Subjects using fast training rates did not exhibit significant improvements.
