Characteristics of fixation in infantile nystagmus (2023)
Thesis

Infantile nystagmus (IN) oscillations are known to be multiplanar in some cases however, eye movement assessment for treatment strategies are often done in one plane. Common forms of treatment include maximizing the patients preferred gaze and/or con... Read More about Characteristics of fixation in infantile nystagmus.

Minimal reporting guideline for research involving eye tracking (2023 edition) (2023)
Journal Article

A guideline is proposed that comprises the minimum items to be reported in research studies involving an eye tracker and human or non-human primate participant(s). This guideline was developed over a 3-year period using a consensus-based process via... Read More about Minimal reporting guideline for research involving eye tracking (2023 edition).

Acceptance of COVID-19 vaccine among sub-Saharan Africans (SSA): A comparative study of residents and diasporan dwellers (2023)
Journal Article

Background
The COVID-19 vaccines are being rolled out across all the sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) countries, with countries setting targets for achieving full vaccination rates. The aim of this study was to compare the uptake of, resistance and hesitanc...

Habitual visual acuity and visual acuity threshold demands in Nigerian school classrooms (2022)
Journal Article

This study was designed to estimate the burden of blindness and vision impairment in school children, and to determine the proportion of students meeting the visual acuity (VA) demand for their classrooms. From 148 primary and secondary school classr... Read More about Habitual visual acuity and visual acuity threshold demands in Nigerian school classrooms.

Accuracy and Precision of Fixation is Correlated with Gaze Angle (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Purpose – In infantile nystagmus, the null zone tends to favour better oculomotor control even when it is eccentric. We investigated whether gaze position affects fixation in typical participants.
Methods – Nine emmetropes fixated vanishing optotype... Read More about Accuracy and Precision of Fixation is Correlated with Gaze Angle.

Online e-learning during the COVID-19 lockdown in Trinidad and Tobago: prevalence and associated factors with ocular complaints among schoolchildren aged 11-19 years (2022)
Journal Article

Background: The increase in online learning during the pandemic has been linked to various ocular complaints. This study determined the prevalence and factors associated with ocular complaints among schoolchildren aged 12-19 years during the COVID-19...

Fixation characteristics at off-gaze positions in typical observers (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Effect of viewing distance on fixation characteristics in typical observers (2021)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Purpose : Fixation is the state in which the eyes foveate a target. Previous studies on fixation stability were undertaken at distances of 40cm or greater, and thus have not systematically examined the effect of viewing distance (hence vergence). In...

The potential off-axis performance and accuracy of the PowerRef 3 for measurements in nystagmus (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Accommodation is vital to produce a clear, focussed image for close work. In nystagmus, a continuous conjugate oscillation of the eyes, studies on accommodation are lacking. Ong et al. (1993) demonstrated normal static accommodation, apart from incre... Read More about The potential off-axis performance and accuracy of the PowerRef 3 for measurements in nystagmus.
