Characterizing Refractive Errors, Near Accommodative and Vergence Anomalies and Symptoms in an Optometry Clinic.

Accommodative anomalies were more frequent than refractive error and vergence anomalies. The high frequency of anomalies suggests a high uptake of optometric services for asthenopia. Accommodative anomalies were the most symptomatic. The study highlights the need for diagnosing visual symptoms and coexisting anomalies. Establishment of validated study protocols for all accommodative and vergence anomalies is recommended.
