in the hirschberg when the reflex is out too far the patient has an...
esotropia
26
which test measure the amount of strabismus which moves the deviated corneal reflex with prism
krimsky test
27
what prism do you use for an exotrope
base in
28
what prism do you use for an esotrop
base out
29
what prism do you use for a right hyperope
base down on right eye
30
what prism do you use for a left hypo
base up on left eye
31
what are 4 limits of hirschberg and krimsky tests
1. difficult to identify strabismus of less than 10 D 2. cant identify patients with phorias 3. cant id the size of the deviation accurately 4. may miss intermittent tropias, may mistake alternating tropia for constant r or l tropia
32
how far away do you stand for bruckner test
1 meter
33
for the brucker test, which eye shows strabismus
the lighter or brighter eye
34
what lens do you use for brucker
+1
35
which is the fixating eye for bruckner
the darker one
36
what are 4 limits to the bruckner test
1. cant quantify the angle of strabismus 2. may have unequal brightness due to anisocoria, media opacities, posterior pole anomalies, anisometropia 3. dilated pupils may make test invalid 4. test is inaccurate in very young children under 8 months
37
in brucker, what does a hyperopia show
a dark crescent down or to the right in the red reflex
38
in brucker, what does a myope show
a dark crescent up or to the left in the red reflex
39
how far do you stand for cover test at near? | at far?
20' | 16'' or 40 cm
40
what does the cover-uncover test differentiate btwn? what does it tell us about tropias?
- phoria and tropia - if tropia is constant unilateral right or left, or alternating - if tropia is intermittent or constant - if pt has binocular vision
41
pts with phorias have _____ and pts w/ tropias do not
binocularity
42
what does the alternating cover test tell us
- the direction of the pts phoria or tropia | - the size of the pts phoria or tropia
43
one eye fixates while the other is turned in, out, up, or down
strabismus
44
under normal conditions, the 2 eyes are aligned and the pt is binocular, but one eye turns when fusion is disrupted
phoria
45
a pt who has strabismus does not have ___ and ___ and is not _____
sensory or motor fusion | binocular
46
when you cover the od and watch os - os moves, now watch os when you UNCOVER OD. - os moves= _________ - of doesn't move = _______
- constant L tropia | - alternating tropia
47
strabisnus is ________ or alternating AND constant or ________
unilateral | intermittent
48
if the pt has both a horizontal and a vetical deviation, measure the ______ deviation first, leave the prism in place, and put the other prism on the other eye. -ONE PRISM PER EYE
larger
49
"cover" part differentiates btwn..... | "uncover" part differentiates btwn...
- phorias and tropias | - alternating tropias and monocular tropias (constnat R or L tropias)
50
pt able to fixate with either eye when both eyes are open, but not with both eyes on the same object at the same time
alternating strabismus
51
the ability to maintain fixation with only one of the two eyes when both eyes are open
unilateral strabismus
52
when both eyes are open he fixates with his left eye, only and the right eye is turned in
unilateral strabismus
53
both eyes are open, the right eye is turned in and the left eye is fixating
constant right esotropia
54
what must vertical devisations always be labeled as
right or left
55
this test tells us in which direction the pts eye is deviated when fusion has been disrupted
alternating cover test
56
what are normal cover test findings for distance and near
1 prism diopter exophoria (+ or - 2 prism dioptters) | 3 PD exophoria (+ or - 3 PD)
57
when is a phoria a problem for the patient
if the pt doesnt have an adequate supply of fusional vergence to remain comfortable
58
when is a tropia a problem for the pt
a cosmetic problem or it it causes the pt to develop amblyopia
59
unilateral condition in which the best corrected VA is less than 20/20 in the absence of any obvious structural defect or pathology and is accompanied by one or more of the following conditions BEFORE 6-8 YEARS
AMBLYOPIA
60
what are 3 amblyogenic conditions 1. constant ______ 2. ______refractive error 3. _______ degradatoin
1. constnat unilateral strabismus 2. amblyogenic refractive error 3. image degradation
61
amblyopia must occur before the age of
6-8
62
amblyopia is cause by...
constant, unilateral strabismus before 6-8 years
63
no amblyopia from.... 1. _____ tropia 2. tropia at _____, phoria at _____ 3. phoria at _____, tropia at _____ 3. intermittnet _______ 4. tripia with onset after age _____
1. alternating 2. distance, near 3. distance, near 3. tropia 4. 6-8 years
64
amblyopia is a diagnosis of _____ and ______
exclusion and inclusion
65
you must exclude _____ and _______ and inculde a ______ as the ______ of amblyopia
