• Non-cycloplegic refraction cannot replace cycloplegic refraction when screening for refractive errors in children 

      Bjørset, Cecilie Onshuus; Pedersen, Hilde Røgeberg; Synstelien, Gro O.; Gilson, Stuart; Hagen, Lene Aarvelta; Langaas, Trine; Thorud, Hanne Mari Schiøtz; Vikesdal, Gro Horgen; Baraas, Rigmor C.; Svarverud, Ellen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      The purpose was to assess the differences in spherical equivalent refractive error (SER) between cycloplegic autorefraction (1% cyclopentolate), non-cycloplegic autorefraction, and non-cycloplegic retinoscopy measured by ...
    • Normal saccades but decreased fixation stability in a population of children with dyslexia 

      Vikesdal, Gro Horgen; Falkenberg, Helle Kristine; Mon-Williams, Mark; Riddell, Patricia; Langaas, Trine (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Developmental dyslexia affects around 5-15% of the population and has a heterogeneous aetiology. Optometric disorders are more prevalent in dyslexic populations but the relationship be- tween eye movement control and ...
    • Optically induced refractive errors reduces fixation stability but saccade latency remains stable 

      Vikesdal, Gro Horgen; Langaas, Trine (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of optically induced refractive errors on saccade latency and fixation stability. Sixteen healthy, young adults (two males), with normal visual acuity and normal ...
    • Saccade latency and fixation stability: Repeatability and reliability 

      Vikesdal, Gro Horgen; Langaas, Trine (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      This study aimed to investigate the repeatability and reliability of saccadic latency and fix-ation stability as a function of sighting-dominance and contact lens wear. Eye movements were recorded in 12 healthy adults who ...
    • Synsscreening hos førskolebarn 

      Wæhre, Torill (Master thesis, 2022)
      Bakgrunn: Barns syn utvikles mye de første leveårene. Normal synsutvikling forutsetter at barnet ikke skjeler eller har høye brytningsfeil. Et uklart bilde på netthinnen øker risikoen for at barnet utvikler amblyopi. Verdens ...
    • Visual function in Norwegian children aged 5–13 years with prenatal exposure to opioid maintenance therapy: A case–control study 

      Aslaksen, Anne Kathinka; Vikesdal, Gro Horgen; Voie, Marit Torbergsen; Rowlands, Megan; Skranes, Jon Sverre; Haugen, Olav H. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Purpose: To assess various aspects of visual function in school children prenatally exposed to opioid maintenance therapy (OMT) and to explore possible outcome differences between prenatal methadone and buprenorphine ...
