Sentences with EMMETROPIA (5)
The weak side of the theory lies in the fact, that that relation between accommodation and convergence which is developed in emmetropia in consequence of daily practice, is given as being in itself normal and the one for all conditions of refraction.
Those cases deserve particular mention, in which it remained doubtful whether hypermetropia of slight degree or emmetropia was present.
The attempt has really been made to attribute the commencement of convergent strabismus to the accommodation even in emmetropia, and offers fresh proof how easily facts are overwhelmed by theories.
Afterwards, Donders sought to explain the occurrence of convergent strabismus in emmetropia by paresis of accommodation, which must indeed, according to his theory, produce the same result as hypermetropia.
This is still more the case with diphtheritic paralysis of accommodation, which is present more frequently than we are aware of, for it is only a trouble to children in the schoolroom, in younger children it passes through its natural uninterrupted course of recovery unobserved, in hypermetropia as well as in emmetropia.
