title: The relation between night myopia and accommodative convergence.
abstract: Accommodation and convergence normally bear a tight relation to each other. To the extent that night myopia is due to an actual change in lens convexity, accommodation in night myopia should be accompanied by a commensurate change in convergence. This prediction was shown to be false because of variability in the convergence mechanism.
