Removed the section ‘Binocular Convergence and Photophobia’. The excerpt that was in this section can now be found on the Nutritional Optometry page.

 

"At issue in this study is functional photophobia, first described by Lane (1963) as associated with what Kaufman (1963) has called 'variability [or variation] of binocular convergence.' Functional photophobia is the most commonly encountered form of glare hypersensitivity in the United States, and it is an important clinical problem in ophthalmic practice. It produces discomfort more usually than pain, and much (but not all) of what is considered ‘discomfort glare’ may be attributed to functional photophobia"

01/07/05   Hearing: Mozart Effect

Removed the section ‘Warning: People with Hyperacusis’.

     Although people with hyperacusis are sensitive to higher frequency sounds, less-high frequency sounds may help to stimulate listening.

     The level of high frequencies can be adjusted using a treble control or a graphic equalizer.

 

“People with hyperacusis have such a severe collapsed tolerance to sound, that it may be difficult and sometimes impossible for them to remain in the mainstream of life enduring all the environmental noise which comes with living in our world today. All sounds may be perceived as too loud, although the high frequencies are particularly troublesome."
