Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have been associated with sensory hypersensitivity. A recent study reported visual acuity (VA) in ASD in the region reported for birds of prey. The validity of the results was subsequently doubted. This study examined VA in 34 individuals with ASD, 16 with schizophrenia (SCH), and 26 typically developing (TYP). Participants with ASD did not show higher VA than those with SCH and TYP. There were no substantial correlations of VA with clinical severity in ASD or SCH. This study could not confirm the eagle-eyed acuity hypothesis of ASD, or find evidence for a connection of VA and clinical phenotypes. Research needs to further address the origins and circumstances associated with altered sensory or perceptual processing in ASD.
自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 与感觉过敏有关。最近的一项研究报告称，在 ASD 中观察到了类似于猛禽的视力 (VA)。随后，人们对研究结果的有效性产生了怀疑。本研究检查了 34 名 ASD 患者、16 名精神分裂症 (SCH) 患者和 26 名正常发育 (TYP) 者的 VA。ASD 患者的 VA 并不高于 SCH 和 TYP 患者。ASD 或 SCH 患者的 VA 与临床严重程度之间没有显著的相关性。本研究无法证实 ASD 的鹰眼光敏度假说，也没有发现 VA 与临床表型之间存在联系的证据。研究需要进一步探讨 ASD 中感觉或知觉处理改变的起源和相关情况。
