Then, the blinq was compared to the Adaptica 2WIN with CR corneal reflex strabismus estimation by AAPOS 2003 guidelines plus additional efforts to identify patients with diminished binocularity.Results: Blinq in 100 patients compared to 2003 AAPOS amblyopia risk factors (ARF) had sensitivity 67%, specificity 75% and PPV of 82%. Both blinq and 2WIN were completed by 87 patients median age 6.5 years. Sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) for blinq were 75%, 68% and 81% whereas 2WIN had 91%, 68% and 84%. The blinq referred two young patients with isolated, small-angle strabismic amblyopia that 2WIN refractive function passed.Conclusion: Despite its non-refractive design to identify binocular foveation, blinq performed well with refractive and strabismic uniform risk factors and a PPV greater than 80%.Clinical Trials Registry: NCT04195711.Keywords: birefringent, photoscreening, amblyopia, fixation instability, amblyopia risk factor, strabismusArnold RWDove Medical Pressarticlebirefringentphotoscreeningamblyopiafixation instabilityamblyopia risk factorstrabismusOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 325-329 (2020) |
