A manipulator attached with a stainless wire was placed under the objective lens of a stereomicroscope. The wire was moved up manually, and the subjects were instructed to stop the knob movement once the wire reached the same height as the fixed two wires. The deviation from the height of the fixed wires was measured under a best optically corrected binocular, a best optically corrected monocular, or an anisometropic binocular [± 3 diopters (D) in the dominant or nondominant eye] condition.Results: The deviation was significantly smaller in the binocular condition than in the monocular dominant eye condition (0.38 ± 0.26 mm vs 1.89 ± 1.15 mm, p < 0.001) and was also significantly smaller in the best optically corrected binocular than in the anisometropic binocular condition [1.07 ± 1.00 mm (− 3.0 D), p = 0.003; 0.85 ± 0.67 mm (+3.0 D), p < 0.001].Conclusion: Depth perception under the microscope is more accurate under the binocular than in the monocular condition, indicating the potential role of stereopsis. Anisometropia deteriorates depth perception, suggesting that refractive error should be corrected during microscopic work, such as during ophthalmic surgery.Keywords: anisometropia, dynamic stereopsis, stereopsis, three-rods testShinomiya KFujikado TKitora AOkamoto SIwata AOgushi YMitamura YDove Medical Pressarticleanisometropiadynamic stereopsisstereopsisthree-rods testOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 3901-3908 (2021)
