Popis: Though the Hirschberg test has been used for over a 100 years, several different formulas are still being recommended and used clinically to determine the amount of a given ocular deviation. The purpose of this study was to obtain a double-masked clinical evaluation of the Hirschberg test. Several strabismic patients were evaluated by one investigator using the alternate cover test and by another investigator using a photographic Hirschberg procedure in a double-masked procedure. It was determined that the Hirschberg test can be used for strabismic patients of all ages and that the most appropriate formula to use is 1 mm = 22 delta.
