Abstract

The review deals with association of traffic accidents and visual state of drivers. The study in healthy professional drivers covered influence of visual defect patterns (short sight, lower visual acuity, unilateral amblyopia and single eye) on quality of car driving. The driving quality appeared to be influenced by factor causing lower visual acuity (changes in refraction and opacity of transparent eye structures). Binocular vision plays insignificant role in driving and maneuvering. Lower quality of maneuvering results mainly from diplopia, but not from loss of stereoscopic vision.
