Abstract
The ability of the binocular system to suppress blur from the defocuse d eye is an important mechanism underlying the success of monovision c orrection. With a group of 60 new monovision wearers, we found that bl ur suppression ability varied substantially between subjects and that crossed dominance influenced blur suppression ability. Symptoms of gho sting amongst the monovision wearers appeared to be influenced by the strength of rivalry dominance. An understanding of the suppression pro cesses underlying monovision may assist in patient selection and manag ement.
