BackgroundVision standards exist in many occupations with particular reference to medical science. The presence of a sufficient level of binocular vision is especially important in surgical specialty to perform visually demanding procedures. The purpose of this study was to reveal the level of awareness of one’s binocular status among medical students, and the significance of having binocular vision in terms of specialty choice.Material and Methodsself-constructed questionnaire was given to all subjects enrolled in the study. The first group comprised 53 students from the second and third year of the Medical University of Lodz, who then underwent an ophthalmological examination with binocularity assessment. The second group included 57 students of the last years of the Medical Faculty, who did the same survey and outlined how the ophthalmology course improved their knowledge of stereoacuity and vision requirements for the chosen specialty. Statistical analysis was performed using Person’s χ2 test.ResultsOverall, 32% (N = 17) of the students from the first group and 84% (N = 48) from the second group stated to be familiar with the term “binocularity” and its importance in performing surgical procedures. The awareness of the existing occupational contraindications related to low visual acuity and binocularity was declared by 16% (N = 9) and 54% (N = 31) of the subjects included in each group, respectively. University lectures were indicated as the main source of knowledge by 28% (N = 15) of the individuals from the first group and by 59% (N = 39) from the second group. The ophthalmology course was considered to be sufficiently covering the basics needed for the future doctor by 34 resident physicians (60%).ConclusionsThe medical students’ awareness of their own binocular status appears low. There is a strong need for implementing at least some quality standards for visual assessment to decide if a given student has an adequate eye function to participate in surgical procedures.

The author attempts to describe the inspiration that comes from several concepts of various authors who are literary critics (E. Honing, L.L. Dickson), the researchers studying metaphors (P. Crisp) and studying creativity (G. Rose) and psychoanalysts who indicate educational gains, resulting from a “good analytic hour” in which the “binocular vision” occurs, coming from the allegorical “cognitive epistemology” and leading to sublimation conceived as a higher state of understanding of itself and the reality (H. Loewald, J. Miller). Among the many concepts of allegories presented earlier in her book “Allegories in aesthetic spaces of pedagogy. Duality in expositions of the ironic allegorist – qualitativeresearch” she chooses, for the purpose of this article only a single one. It is the concept of thinking about allegorical interpretation of works of William Golding.

Autorka artykułu podejmuje próbę opisania inspiracji dla edukacji etycznej, jaka płynie z kilku koncepcji, których autorami są literaturoznawcy (E. Honing, L.L. Dickson), badacze metafor (P. Crisp) i twórczości (G. Rose) oraz psychoanalitycy, wskazujący edukacji zysk, jaki może spowodować „dobra godzina analityczna”, w której pojawia się „widzenie binokularne”, wychodzące od alegorycznej „królewskiej drogi do empatii epistemologicznej” (A. Margulies) i prowadzące do sublimacji pojmowanej jako wyższy stan rozumienia siebie i rzeczywistości (H. Loewald, J. Miller). Spośród wielu koncepcji alegorii, które przedstawiła w swojej książce pt. Alegorie w estetycznych przestrzeniach pedagogiki. Dwoistość w ekspozycjach ironicznego alegoryka – badania jakościowe wybiera jako przykład, dla potrzeb tego artykułu, tylko jedną. Jest nią koncepcja myślenia o sposobie interpretacji alegorycznych dzieł W. Goldinga.
