The entopic phenomenon called "Haidinger's brushes" (HB) is used both as a diagnostic testing procedure and as a feedback mechanism in visual training. A recent explanation of HB incorporating corneal birefringence is presented. This new theory also explains a clinical phenomenon found by this author. By using a "heat-treated" glass prism, a HB pattern can be enhanced, stopped, or reversed along a continuum of rotation. Clinical application of this phenomenon in testing macular integrity as well as in visual training is discussed.
被称为“海丁格刷”(HB)的内视现象既被用作一种诊断测试程序,也被用作视觉训练中的一种反馈机制。本文提出了一种结合角膜双折射的HB新解释。这一新理论还解释了作者发现的一种临床现象。通过使用“热处理”玻璃棱镜,HB图案可以在连续旋转过程中得到增强、停止或反转。本文讨论了这一现象在测试黄斑完整性以及视觉训练中的临床应用。
