title: [Effects of acute psychogenic stress on the state of several functions of the visual analyzer].
abstract: Accommodation and binocular functions were examined after the earthquake of 1988 in 762 residents of Armenia who had not complained of their organ of vision before. Pseudo-myopia was detected in 30 percent of the examinees, concomitant strabismus in 4, and near-sight heterophoria in 4 percent. This permits a conclusion on the direct effect of an acute psychogenic stress during calamities on accommodation and binocular functions, particularly so in children.
