<p>Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate if static retinoscopy has a higher correlation with monocular than binocular subjective refraction, and also to see if there is any difference between these results and Mohindra retinoscopy.</p><p>Methods: Retinoscopy and subjective refraction was performed on 32 adult subjects and the results from 29 of these were analysed.</p><p>Results: The statistical analyses showed that static retinoscopy has a higher correlation with monocular than binocular subjective refraction. Overall the correlation was high between all the refraction methods.</p><p>Conclusion: Static retinoscopy has a higher correlation with monocular than binocular subjective refraction in adults. Static and Mohindra retinoscopy are similar, and Mohindra retinoscopy is highly correlated with subjective refraction in adults.</p>
