2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

   A lens which includes some amount of prism correction will displace the viewed image horizontally, vertically, or a combination of both directions. The most common application for this is the treatment of strabismus. By moving the image in front of the deviated eye, double vision can be avoided and comfortable binocular vision can be achieved ...

3. Ocular myasthenia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_myasthenia

   Ocular myasthenia gravis (MG) is a disease of the neuromuscular junction resulting in hallmark variability in muscle weakness and fatigability. MG is an autoimmune disease where anomalous antibodies are produced against the naturally occurring acetylcholine receptors in voluntary muscles. MG may be limited to the muscles of the eye (ocular MG ...

4. Diplopia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

   That involves blocking one eye to see which symptoms are evident in each eye alone. Persisting blurry or double vision with one eye closed is classified as monocular diplopia. Binocular. Binocular diplopia is the other one in which the blurring of vision occurs only when the patient looks through both eyes simultaneously.

5. Homonymous hemianopsia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homonymous_hemianopsia

   Hemianopsia, or hemianopia, is a visual field loss on the left or right side of the vertical midline. It can affect one eye but usually affects both eyes. Homonymous hemianopsia (or homonymous hemianopia) is hemianopic visual field loss on the same side of both eyes. Homonymous hemianopsia occurs because the right half of the brain has visual ...

6. Fixation disparity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_disparity

   Eye glasses with an included prism power is the optical method to reduce a fixation disparity. Different procedures have been proposed to determine the required amount of prism for the individual. Based on prism-FD curves (Fig. 3b), one can find the aligning prism sP 0 that nullifies the naturally prevailing fixation disparity sFD 0. This test ...

7. Hypertropia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertropia

   Hypertropia is a condition of misalignment of the eyes ( strabismus ), whereby the visual axis of one eye is higher than the fellow fixating eye. Hypotropia is the similar condition, focus being on the eye with the visual axis lower than the fellow fixating eye. Dissociated vertical deviation is a special type of hypertropia leading to slow ...
