Although the visual evoked response (VER) has been used as a tool in research and clinical practice for many years. It has only recently become possible to use the VER to achieve an objective measure of stereopsis. This method of evaluation has great potential, particularly for use with patients who have limited ability to communicate visual impressions to the examiner. The authors are using dynamic random dot stereo tests in association with VER recording and analysis to evaluate stereopsis comprehensively. Methods and results are considered.
