ASTEROID is a new game for children to test how well they can see depth by using a 3D mobile device. Every year half a million children are diagnosed or treated for binocular vision disorders such as Amblyopia (lazy eye) or Strabismus (squint). Clinicians use special eye tests called “stereotests” to measure how well the two eyes work together. Current clinical stereotests haven’t changed in decades and don’t always give accurate results.
ASTEROID (Accurate STEReotest On a mobIle Device) project is launching this month in Newcastle, putting the fun in the 3D eye test. For more information click here.
