Abstract

A 23 year old female had complained of intolerable headaches and eyestrain experienced after only short periods of spectacle wear. Using measurements obtained on a newly designed eikono­meter, a small degree of aniseikonia through her spectacles was detected. Complete correction of aniseikonia was achieved by equalizing the venex dis­tances in front of both eyes. This was accompanied by complete cessation of her symptoms and allowed prolonged and comfonable spectacle wear.
