In this retrospective study
the effect on visual acuity of
binocular 9% aniseikonic spectacle lenses,
was investigated in subjects with
a borderline visual acuity
aiming to assist in keeping their drivers licence.

Aniseikonic lenses
Literature:
• First described by Ames, Gliddon & Ogle (1932)
• First use for the correction of severe cases of clinical Aniseikonia (Lancaster, 1932)
“Aniseikonia”visual defect in which the shape and size of an
ocular image differ in the two eyes

• Improvement of VA from below to above legal requirement level ( 0.5 (30/60)) in all 21 subjects
• 12 Subjects succeded to pass the driving test
• 3 Subjects did not execute the medical exam for different reasons (costs and/or negative advise of family)

• For individuals with borderline visual acuity, fitting 9% aniseikonic lenses is a promising option to pass the medical exam for a driving licence in the Netherlands
• Aniseikonic lenses should be considered in selected patients to enhance visual acuity
• The use of aniseikonic lenses fitted binocular in order to enhance visual acuity for driving deserves further research
