25
Q

Exophoria

A

The tendency of the two eyes to turn out for a target; this tendency is overcome by positive fusional vergence

26
Q

Esophoria

A

The tendency of the two eyes to turn in for a target; this tendency is overcome by negative fusional vergence

27
Q

Hyperphoria

A

The tendency of one eye to look above the other; this tendency is overcome by vertical fusional vergence

28
Q

Strabismus

A

A deviation of one eye relative to the other; aka tropical, squint, or strab

29
Q

Exotropia

A

The deviation of one eye out

30
Q

Esotropia

A

The deviation of one eye in

31
Q

Hypertropia

A

The deviation of one eye up

32
Q

Hypotropia

A

The deviation of one eye down

33
Q

Biocular

A

A strabismus renders a patient _____; when not seeing double, 1 eye is suppressed

34
Q

Fusion

A

The images seen by two eyes being coordinated into one image cortically aka in the brain

35
Q

Suppression

A

Cutting off vision in one eye cortically because fusion is not possible

36
Q

Stereopsis

A

Depth perception; highest level of binocular vision

37
Q

Monocular

A

Only one functional eye or only one of the two eyes seeing

38
Q

Biocular

A

Each eye focusing on an object but two images are not fused; the patient sees double vision

39
Q

Binocular

A

The ability of the two eyes to focus on one object and fuse the two images into one

40
Q

Tonic position

A

The position of the two eyes at far point with no stimulus to accommodation or convergence; the physiological position of rest measured at far point

41
Q

Proximal convergence

A

Or psychic convergence; vergence brought about due to the awareness of the nearness of an object

42
Q

Fusional vergence

A

Vergence movement with no associated change in accommodation

43
Q

Anatomical position of rest

A

When all innervation to the extraocular muscles has been removed, in deep anesthesia or death; the eyes are usually up and out

44
Q

Prims

A

What deviates light toward the base and an image toward the apex?

45
Q

BI prism

A

_____ moves the target further away from the patient no matter who you are

46
Q

BO prims

A

_____ moves the target closer to the patient no matter who you are

47
Q

BI prism

A

Exophores are corrected/neutralized with ___

48
Q

PFV

A

When exophores are given BI prism, this causes patients to use less ___

49
Q

BO prism

A

Exophores are made worse by the addition of ____

50
Q

BO prism

A

Exophores are corrected/neutralized by ___

51
Q

NFV

A

The addition of BO prism to exophores causes the patient to use less ____

52
Q

BI prism

A

Esophores are made worse by the addition of ____

53
Q

Punctum remotum (convergence)

A

The position of the lines of sight when fusion is removed during far point fixation with accommodation relaxed; position of tonic convergence; the distance from which eyes have to move located on the z axis

54
Q

Punctum proxiumum

A

The closest point at which the patient can maintain single binocular vision; determined by performing the near point of convergence

55
Q

Amplitude of convergence

A

The prism dioptric difference between the PR and PP of convergence

56
Q

A

The amount of accommodative convergence change per diopter change in accommodation (ratio) assume 6/1 if not given

57

Accommodative convergence is stimulated

A

When accommodation is stimulated…

58
Q
