What YOU know, but PARENTS do not know:
1 in 20 preschoolers has a vision problem
children are often unaware of their vision problem
85% of amblyopia cases are not detected until after the preschool years
if amblyopia is untreated by the age of 6 - 9, permanent vision loss is likely

Most common vision problems in children:
Strabismus - affecting about 4% of children. Microtropia is prevalent in 1% of the population.
Amblyopia - which can be secondary to strabismus, anisometropia, congenital cataracts, etc.
Refractive errors - such as myopia and hypermetropia, and corneal disorders

Testing for stereopsis is an essential part of vision screening
the child who fails the stereopsis screening is at greater risk for amblyopia or loss of vision, in one eye
when the brain is able to blend the separate images from each eye into one image, the child perceives three-dimensional space and is said to have good stereopsis
the LANG-STEREOTEST is an easy-to-use screening-test designed for early detection of problems with stereoscopic vision in children

From idea …
the LANG-STEREOTEST was created in 1983 by Joseph Lang, to simplify stereopsis screening in small children
it is based on the combination of two principles:
random dots and cylinder gratings
![Page 8: LANG-STEREOTEST p. LANG STEREOTEST Fähnlibrunnenstr. 5 CH-8700 Küsnacht Switzerland info@lang-stereotest.com.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102814/5518c69b550346881f8b5863/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
the images of two eyes are separated by a system of fine parallel semi-cylindrical strips. Beneath each cylinder there are two fine strips of pictures, one seen by the right, the other seen by the left eye
this has two advantages:
no polarized glasses are necessary
the eye movements of the examenee can easily be observed

From idea …………………… ……to reality!
upon monocular viewing, the test plate appears as a grey random dot surface. Stereoscopic test objects are perfectly hidden.
the two versions of the test, LANG-STEREOTEST I and II, only differ in the type of stereoscopic objects to be recognized
the LANG-STEREOTEST II additionally contains a star that can be recognized with only one eye

testing stereopsis with LANG STEREOTEST
![Page 17: LANG-STEREOTEST p. LANG STEREOTEST Fähnlibrunnenstr. 5 CH-8700 Küsnacht Switzerland info@lang-stereotest.com.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102814/5518c69b550346881f8b5863/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
eye observing while using LANG STEREOTEST
![Page 18: LANG-STEREOTEST p. LANG STEREOTEST Fähnlibrunnenstr. 5 CH-8700 Küsnacht Switzerland info@lang-stereotest.com.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102814/5518c69b550346881f8b5863/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Screening results:
1. Positive: Correct localization and naming of all hidden objects and/or typically jumping eye movements from one object to the next. -> Fine stereopsis is proven
NO FURTHER EXAMINATION OF STEREOSCOPIC VISION IS NEEDED
Retesting at further age is recommended
2. Negative/Doubtful: No object or only one object can be detected, and eye movements also do not indicate the recognition of the 3D objects. Eyes are scanning the test plate and then shift away from it -> Fine stereopsis remains unproven
REFER TO OPHTHALMOLGIST FOR FURTHER EXAMINATION
![Page 19: LANG-STEREOTEST p. LANG STEREOTEST Fähnlibrunnenstr. 5 CH-8700 Küsnacht Switzerland info@lang-stereotest.com.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102814/5518c69b550346881f8b5863/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Test properties:
Sensitivity and Specificity: LANG-STEREOTESTS have similar overall sensitivities like other stereotests, ranging from 17 to 47%. They are highly sensitive for strabimus.
Patients with microtropia very rarely show a positive result on the LANG-STEREOTEST, because it is a test for global stereopsis for which binocular vision is necessary. In contrast, tests for local stereopsis (like Titmus) can be positive also in cases with microtropia.
LANG-STEREOTEST II has demonstrated testability of 94.4% in children aged 6 months.(Sydney Paediatric Eye Disease Study JAAPOS 2012 April; 16/2);185-92)
![Page 20: LANG-STEREOTEST p. LANG STEREOTEST Fähnlibrunnenstr. 5 CH-8700 Küsnacht Switzerland info@lang-stereotest.com.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102814/5518c69b550346881f8b5863/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What YOU know of course:(a disclaimer for those who might not know)
the LANG-STEREOTEST does not measure visual acuity and does not substitute for an ophthalmologic examination. A negative test result indicates only a lack of stereoscopic vision at the time of examination
the LANG-STEREOTEST must always be held quietly and the examinee must not move his head.
the LANG-STEREOTEST must be combined with other visual tests for correct vision screening
