Vision in the water without a facemask.
Distance and size estimates and stereoacuity judgments were made in water by divers, both with and without facemasks. Without the mask, only stereoacuity was markedly degraded. Distance estimates were slightly more accurate, despite a great decrease in the range of visibility. Size estimates were slightly too small. Divers with refractive errors did not appear to be more handicapped than those with normal vision.
