목적: 검영법, MPMVA법(maximum plus maximum visual acuity), 적녹이색법, 크로스실린더법의 단안 구면 끝점검사 반복성을 분석하고자 하였다. 방법: 평균연령 23.0세의 남녀 20명(40안)을 대상으로 4가지 검사법(검영법, MPMVA법, 적녹이색법, 크로스실린더법)으로 끝점 구면굴절력을 측정하였다. 일주일 간격으로 재검사를 실시하고 Bland-Altman plot 분석을 이용하여 검사-재검사 간 반복성을 분석하였다. 결과: 각 검사법의 검사-재검사 평균은 검영법이 가장 적은 -0.03 D이었고, 적녹이색법이 가장 큰 -0.19 D이었다. 검사-재검사의 95% 일치도 상/하한선은 검영법이 가장 좁았고 크로스실린더법이 가장 넓었다. 각 검사안의 검영법 끝점값과 다른 세 검사법의 끝점값을 비교하였을 때 전체 검사안의 ${\pm}0.25$ D 이내 오차 비율은 MPMVA법 85%, 적녹이색검사 80%, 크로스실린더법 24%로 나타났다. 결론: 검영법의 반복성이 가장 높았으며, 검영법, MPMVA법, 적녹이색법은 단안 구면 끝점검사를 위한 적합한 검사법으로 나타났다.
Purpose: To assess the repeatability of the monocular spherical endpoints, a test was performed with four methods which are the retinoscopy, the MPMVA (maximum plus maximum visual acuity) method, the R/G duochrome method, and the crossed cylinder method. Methods: The monocular spherical endpoints was measured by four kinds of method (Retinoscopy, MPMVA method, R/G duochrome method, Crossed cylinder method) on 20 subjects (40 eyes) of average age 23.0 year-old men and women. After a week, retest was performed by same procedure and the test-retest repeatability was assessed by using the Bland-Altman plot analysis. Results: The test-retest mean difference of retinoscopy was the smallest diopters of -0.03 and that of R/G duochrome method was the largest diopters of -0.19. The upper/lower 95% limits of agreement for repeatability was the narrowest in retinoscopy and was the widest in crossed cylinder method. When compared the spherical endpoints of each eye between by retinoscopy and by other three methods, the error rate of ${\pm}0.25D$ in total eyes was 85% in MPMVA method, 80% in R/G duochrome method, and 24% in crossed cylinder method. Conclusions: Test-retest repeatability is the highest in the retinoscopy, and the retinoscopy, the MPMVA method, and R/G duochrome method are suitable for monocular spherical endpoints test.
