title: Restricted lees screen fields in patients with asthenopia, with and without psychogenic disorders.
abstract: Lees screen restrictions of non-specific origin, including apparent restrictions of the SR, IR, and LR muscles, were reported last year by Labow et al. In this complementary study, the authors examined eight apparently healthy subjects who had no history of ocular or psychiatric problems, eight psychiatric patients, and eight who had had a CNS disorder or had suffered cerebral trauma. Comparison of the Lees screen findings, visual fields, and accommodative defects of these patients revealed significant restriction of the Lees screen fields in only those patients who had symptoms of asthenopia (including all in the third group). Thus, such restriction does not depend on emotional state.
