Comparison of Methods for Measuring Cyclodeviation

Abstract

Synoptophore cross-in-circle targets and the largest (of right or left) single-Maddox rod values were similar to double-Maddox values (mean differences: -1.2° and 0.1°, respectively; ICC: 0.79 and 0.82, respectively). Synoptophore house targets measured less excyclodeviation (mean difference: -2.7°; ICC: 0.71). Mean summed single-Maddox rod values were somewhat similar to double-Maddox values (mean difference: 1.5°; ICC: 0.85), but differences increased with greater cyclodeviation (r2 = 0.2678; P < .001). Fundus photographs showed large, uncorrelated differences compared with double-Maddox rod test, when summing right and left eyes and when using the largest of right or left (mean differences: 12.2° and 6.2°; ICC: -0.02 and 0.21, respectively), and differences increased with greater cyclodeviation (r2 = 0.4094; P < .001 and r2 = .1143; P= .03, respectively).
