Q

What is Phi Phenomenon?

A

the patient’s perception of movement opposite the direction of deviation of an eye as it is uncovered
»ex. pt. with an esophoria will perceive an image moving to the left as the paddle is switched from covering the left to the right eye (motion in OPPOSITE direction of movement of paddle)
»For exophoria»motion in SAME direction of movement of paddle

Q

When testing a patient for a vertical deviation, if the patient has a right hypertropia and the red lens is over the right eye, how will this appear to the patient?

A

The red line will appear below the center line»if it is below then it is hyper
In this situation, if the line would have been above, then we could say the patient has a LEFT hyper instead of a right hyper

If the reflexes are unequal, the darker reflex corresponds to what?
If the pt. has strabismus the deviated eye will have what type of reflex?

A

80-100 cm away from midline
»Darker means eye has media opacity, or higher uncorrected refractive error

57
Q

For 4 BO test, assuming 4 BO is placed in front of OD» if OS makes an outward movement and then re-fixates on the target, what does this indicate?

A

No suppression of OD or OS

58
Q

For 4 BO test, assuming 4 BO is placed in front of OD» if OS makes an outward movement but DOES NOT re-fixate on the target, what does this indicate?

A

Suppression of OS

Remember, 4BO over OD will cause OD to move in and left eye to move out (because of Yoked prism movements)

59
Q

For 4 BO test, assuming 4 BO is placed in front of OD» if OS DOES NOT move outward and DOES NOT re-fixate on the target, what does this indicate?

A

This would indicate OD suppression

60
Q

If a patient has an OD exotropia, what will the image look like on After-Image test?

A
