  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    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. Other applications include yoked prism where the image is shifted an equal amount in each eye.

  3. Diplopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

    One of the first steps in diagnosing diplopia is often to see whether one of two major classifications may be eliminated. 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. [15]

  4. Esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esotropia

    Treatment options for esotropia include glasses to correct refractive errors (see accommodative esotropia below), the use of prisms, orthoptic exercises, or eye muscle surgery. The term is from Greek eso meaning "inward" and trope meaning "a turning". [2]

  5. Ocular myasthenia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocular_myasthenia

    The most common symptoms are double vision ( diplopia) and eyelid drooping ( ptosis ), whereas the pupil is always spared. Diplopia occurs when MG affects a single extraocular muscle in one eye, limiting eye movement and leading to double vision when the eye is turned toward the affected muscle.

  6. Aberrations of the eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberrations_of_the_eye

    To measure RMS for each type of aberration involves squaring the difference between the aberration and mean value and averaging it across the pupil area. Different kinds of aberrations may have equal RMS across the pupil but have different effects on vision, therefore, RMS error is unrelated to visual performance.

  7. Strabismus surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strabismus_surgery

    Treatment of the double vision depends on both the type of double vision and the ability of two eyes to work together, also called binocular function. [12] Diplopia with normal binocular function is treated with prism glasses, botulinum injections into the muscles, or repeated surgery. [12]

  8. Convergence insufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_insufficiency

    Symptoms. The symptoms and signs associated with convergence insufficiency are related to prolonged, visually demanding, near-centered tasks. They may include, but are not limited to, diplopia (double vision), asthenopia (eye strain), transient blurred vision, difficulty sustaining near-visual function, abnormal fatigue, headache, and abnormal ...

  9. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    A pair of contact lenses, positioned with the concave side facing upward. A corrective lens is a transmissive optical device that is worn on the eye to improve visual perception. The most common use is to treat refractive errors: myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.

  10. Subjective refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_refraction

    Subjective Refraction is a technique to determine the combination of lenses that will provide the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA). [1] It is a clinical examination used by orthoptists, optometrists and ophthalmologists to determine a patient's need for refractive correction, in the form of glasses or contact lenses.

  11. Maddox rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_rod

    The Maddox rod test can be used to subjectively detect and measure a latent, manifest, horizontal or vertical strabismus for near and distance. The test is based on the principle of diplopic projection. [1] Dissociation of the deviation is brought about by presenting a red line image to one eye and a white light to the other, while prisms are ...
