Popis: For the purpose to select tests for diagnosis of latent disturbances of visual functions, dynamic observation was conducted over 88 healthy school children within 5 years (from the 3d to the 8th form). Once a year, the children underwent examination of visual acuity for far and near, the state of binocular vision on a synoptophore and a color test, the volume of relative and absolute accommodation, muscular balance of eyes for far and near, contrast sensibility, the time of perception of the negative successive contrast, refraction. For the period of 5 years, 7 children developed myopia of low degree, 32 showed transitory or lasting reduction of visual acuity due to spasm of accommodation. The authors believe that the most rapid and informative tests for diagnosis of latent disturbances in accommodation-convergence system are visual acuity for near, the volume of absolute accommodation, the threshold of remote vision, muscular balance of eyes for near. It is recommended to use these tests widely when conducting ophthalmologic thorough prophylactic examinations of children.
