Q

The condition in which both eyes have equal refractive power

A

Isometropia

17
Q

The ability of the body to develop into an upright/vertical position and gain balance

A

Antigravity

18
Q

General body from stretch receptors in the muscles and connective tissues of the body

A

Proprioception

19
Q

The ability of a person to locate where he/she is located in space, through the use of the eyes and body

20
Q

Through past experiences

A

Identification

21
Q

How many percent of the population have amblyopia and/or strabismus

22
Q

T/F
Exodeviation occur far more frequently than esodeviations

23
Q

Compensatory head movement

A

Face turn
Chin elevation/depression
Head tilt to one shoulder

24
Q

Face turn

A

Horizontal deviation

25
Chin elevation/depression
Vertical deviation
26
Head tilt to one shoulder
Tortional deviation
27
When both the fovea have a common visual direction
Normal retinal correspondence
28
When fovea of one eye has a common visual direction with an extrafoveal area in the other eye
ARC
29
Each eye is directed towards a different object
Confusion
30
Resolving confusion:
Tune one channel out Physically cover an eye Blur one channel Turn one eye in a different direction
31
Measuring prism of eso deviation
Base out
32
Training prism of exo deviation
Base out
33
It allows determination if strabismus is present
Hirschberg test
34
In bruckner test, if strabismus is present, the pupil of the turning eye will appear what?
Brighter and whiter
35
As the person looks in lower position of gaze the eso deviation is less in what type of AV syndrome?
A syndrome
36
As the person looks in lower positions of gaze the eso deviation is larger in what type of AV syndrome?
V syndrome
37
More converged in upward gaze
A syndrome
38
Most common etiology in AV syndrome is
Dysfunction of the oblique muscles
39
Subnormal VA:
Modified distance Counting fingers Hand motion Light projection Light perception
