Q

If a _ Is forced to take up fixation in the field of the under acting muscle it will result in over action of its yolk muscle because there is additional innervation sent to the weakened muscle to function. Due to hering’s law this additional innervation causes the yoke muscle ( of the non-paretic eye) to become overactive and it’s said to a secondary deviation

A

38
Q

A pt who does not demonstrate a deviation of eye alignment is termed _ or _ which is the absence of eye deviation.

A

Ortho , orthophoric

39
Q

Motility testing is typically done with _ so that the pt can fixate on the accommodative target at both distant and near

A

Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA)

40
Q

_ is the angle created between the visual axis ( an imaginary line that connects fixation to the fovea) and the pupillary axis ( center of the curvature or the cornea and pupil)

A

Angle kappa

41
Q

_ corneal reflex falls nasal to the center of the pupil ( in both eyes if pt is ortho and in then fixating eye is a tropia is present)

A

Positive angle kappa

42
Q

_ is when the corneal reflex falls right on the center of the pupil

A

No angle kappa

43
Q

_ corneal reflex falls temporally to the center of the pupil ( in both eyes if pt is ortho and fixating eye if a tropia is present) may give an illusion of an eso deviation

A

Negative angle kappa

44
Q

The hirschberg test states one millimeter of reflex displacement equals approximately _ of eye alignment deviation which is based on the average pupil size of 4mm

A

7 degrees or 15 prism diopters

45
Q

The _ uses prisms following the Hirshberg test to move the deviated reflex back into the position that is symmetrical with the reflex of the fixating Eye as it means of measuring the deviation

A

Krimsky test

46
Q

Hirschberg is an _ based on mm of decentration while krimsky is the _

A

Estimation, measurement of deviation with prisms

47
Q

_ gives the appearance of esotropia due to: less visible sclera, epicanthal folds, and/ or bridge of the nose. Hirschberg proves ortho

A

Pseudoesotropia

48
Q

Hirschberg and krimsky test use an _ target and can be check at both _ and _

A

Accommodative, distant and near

49
Q

A 
Center: Normal 
Medially: exotropia 
Laterally: esotropia 
Inferiorly: hypertropia 
Superiorly: hypotropia
50
Q

Hirschberg light reflex displacement is as follows

A

Pupillary boarder 2mm=15 degrees = 30 prism diopters
Mid iris is 4mm= 30 degrees =60 prism diopters
Limbus is 6mm= 45 degrees = 90 prism diopters

51
Q

Corneal reflex is temporally you hold prism over the eye _ . Nasally _ superiorly _.

A

BO, BI, BU, BD

52
Q

Cover testing includes three types which are _

A

Cover-uncover test, the alternate cover test and the simultaneous prism cover test

53
Q

The _ is the test used to detect binocular fixation and rule out tropia or distinguish between a tropia and a phoria . It allows the patient to establish binocular fixation if possible. If there is no binocular fixation there is no tropia

A

Cover- uncover test

54
Q

The _ is the only test that will differentiate a tropia from a phoria!

A

Cover uncover test

55
Q

When looking for a tropia watch the _ as soon as you cover the opposite eye to see if it moves to pick up fixation . When tropia is present, once fixating eye is covered the tropic eye will move _

A

Uncovered eye , towards fixation

56
Q

_ aka _ follows cover uncover testing (if no tropia ) and is used to bring out a phoria where one must alternate cover ( w occluded) _ times

A

Alternating cover test , cross cover test , 10-12 times

57
Q

Not finding any phoria or tropia with cover uncover test

A

Ortho

58
Q

When measuring a deviation with prism the apex of the prism points _ over the deviated eye

A

Vertical/ horizontal

59
Q

Reasons to preform cover testing

A

Pt reports diplopia
Pt reports difficulty reading
Pt states they can’t read for long time
Complete exam

60
Q

Purpose of cover uncover test and cross cover test includes

A

Tropia or phoria ( cover uncover test)
To see if a pt is fusing/both distance and near
If there is deviation once fusion is broken

61
Q

_ is a condition when an eye drifts upward which may vary during the course of day unilateral or bilateral deviation ( can be unequal and not at the same time)

A

Dissociated vertical divergence

62
Q

_ is preformed by simultaneously covering the The fixating eye at the same time the prism is placed in front of the Deviated eye. Test is repeated increase in prison powers until the deviated Eye no longer moves

A

Dissociated vertical deviation (dvd)
