A

504 sec, 252 sec, 168 sec of arc

29
Q

What is the randot tests?

A

polarized glasses with global and local stereopsis

30
Q

A

shapes 500 sec (top) and 250 sec (bottom)

31
Q

What is the local stereopsis on randot?

A

wirt circles (400 sec to 20 sec), animals (400, 200, 100 sec), with random dot background

32
Q

What are the titmus fly and stereo butterly?

A

gross stereo 3000 sec and stereo 1200-2500 respectively, both tests have local stereopsis with wirt circles to 40 sec, animals, NON randot background

33
Q

What stereo tests are used in preschool/school aged children?

A

randot, stereo/titmus fly and stereo butterfly, flashlight tests

34
Q

What are the flashlight tests?

A

determine binocularity not stereopsis and help determine level of binocularity (2nd degree) if no stereopsis

35
Q

How do you do the flashlight tests?

A

can tests at different distances or different positions of gaze (16 in or 20 ft)

36
Q

What are indications for using flashlight test?

A

patient has strabismus at distance, patient has decreased VA in 1 eye without significant Rx, complaint of double vision

37
Q

What is the 3 figure flashlight procedure?

A

R/G glasses (red on right), done in bright and dim illumination, tests for deepness of suppression, just ask what the patient sees

38
Q

What is the 4 dot flashlight procedure?

A

R/G glasses (red on right), done in bright and dim, tests for deepness of suppression, ask how many dots the patient sees

39
Q

On 4 dot flashlight what does 2 red mean?

A

OS suppression

40
Q

On 4 dot flashlight what does 3 green mean?

A

OD suppression

41
Q

On 4 dot flashlight what does 4 dots (no turn) mean?

42
Q

On 4 dot flashlight what does 4 dots (eye turn) mean?

A

anomalous correspondence

43
Q

How do you investigate diplopia on 4 dot?

A

red on right= uncrossed=eso while red on left= crossed = exo

44
Q

How is 4 shape flashlight different than 4 dot?

A

not really, same procedure but with red heart, green star and moon, white circle

A

test eye movements important for reading and sports

50

A

school age 5+ or if symptoms warrent

51
Q

What are indications for saccades and pursuits?

A

loss of place when reading, brain injury/concussion, athletes

52
Q

Infants as young as ___ could make pursuit to a small target (constant velocity)

53
Q

T/F infants have the ability to make pursuits, but not very well or consistently

A

true, depends on test conditions

54
Q

What are two tests for pursuits?

A

NSUCO (later) and Physiologic H

55
Q

How do you perform physiologic H?

A

wolff wand movements in directions based on development

56
Q

What is the progression of pursuit directions for development?

A

horizontal, vertical, diagonals, circles, z-axis, start/stop, speed change

57
Q

What did the 1975 Aslin study show about infant saccades?

A

1-2 month olds lying on back made initial saccade in wrong direction, succession of saccades, longer latency

58
Q

What did the Hainline study show about infant saccades?

A

5 month olds looking at pattern, saccades were different sizes

59
Q

When are infant saccades adult like?

60
Q

What are the chairside tests for saccades?

A

wolff wand and NSUCO/maples

61
Q

What are the paper tests for saccades?

A

developmental eye movements, king devick, nysoa

62
Q

What are the eye tracking tests of saccades?

A

readalyzer, right eye

63
Q

What is NSUCO?

A

standardized way to measure ocular motor skills, judges ability, accuracy, head movements, and body movements

64
Q

How do you preform NSUCO?

A

standing, feet shoulder width apart, target: wolff wands for saccades two wands 20 cm apart and pursuits 20 cm circle with one want, test performed at 40 cm at one extreme and the patient’s Harmon distance at the other
