  2. Hypertropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertropia

    Treatment. In general, strabismus can be approached and treated with a variety of procedures. Depending on the individual case, treatment options include: Correction of refractive errors by glasses; Prism therapy (if tolerated, to manage diplopia) Vision Therapy; Patching (mainly to manage amblyopia in children and diplopia in adults)

  3. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism correction. Prism lenses (here unusually thick) are used for pre-operative prism adaptation. Eye care professionals use prism correction as a component of some eyeglass prescriptions. A lens which includes some amount of prism correction will displace the viewed image horizontally, vertically, or a combination of both directions.

  4. Congenital fourth nerve palsy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_fourth_nerve_palsy

    When this muscle's function is diminished due to a fourth cranial nerve palsy, the affected eye will extort, deviate upward (hypertropia), and, to a smaller extent, drift inward. Treatment [ edit ] Congenital fourth cranial nerve palsy can be treated with strabismus surgery, where muscle attachment sites on the globe are modified to realign the ...

  5. Heterophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterophoria

    Optometry Ophthalmology. Heterophoria is an eye condition in which the directions that the eyes are pointing at rest position, when not performing binocular fusion, are not the same as each other, or, "not straight".

  6. Cyclotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotropia

    Treatment If only small amounts of torsion are present, cyclotropia may be without symptoms entirely and may not need correction, as the visual system can compensate small degrees of torsion and still achieve binocular vision ( see also: cyclodisparity , cyclovergence ).

  7. Strabismus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strabismus

    Treatment depends on the type of strabismus and the underlying cause. This may include the use of glasses and possibly surgery. Some types benefit from early surgery. Strabismus occurs in about 2% of children. The term comes from the Ancient Greek word στραβισμός (strabismós), meaning 'a squinting'.

  8. Farsightedness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farsightedness

    It then becomes more common again after the age of 40, known as presbyopia, affecting about half of people. [4] The best treatment option to correct hypermetropia due to aphakia is IOL implantation. [2] Other common types of refractive errors are near-sightedness, astigmatism, and presbyopia.

  9. Correction fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correction_fluid

    Correction fluid was applied on a glass base (visible in the bottom-right corner of all SEM images). The exact composition of correction fluid varies between manufacturers, but most fluids are composed of an opacifying agent, a solvent (or thinner) and an adulterant 'fragrance' to discourage abuse.

  10. Fluid replacement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_replacement

    Fluid replacement should be considered as part of the complex physiological in the human body. Therefore, fluid requirements should be adjusted from time to time in those who are severely ill. [3] In severe dehydration, intravenous fluid replacement is preferred, and may be lifesaving.

  11. Projection method (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_method_(fluid...

    In fluid dynamics, The projection method is an effective means of numerically solving time-dependent incompressible fluid-flow problems. It was originally introduced by Alexandre Chorin in 1967 as an efficient means of solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.
