  2. Convergence insufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_insufficiency

    Diagnosis of convergence insufficiency is made by an eye care professional skilled in binocular vision dysfunctions, such as an optometrist, ophthalmologist, or orthoptist to rule out any organic disease. Convergence insufficiency is characterized by one or more of the following diagnostic findings: patient symptoms, high exophoria at near ...

  3. Brock string - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brock_string

    It consists of a white string of approximately 10 feet in length with three small wooden beads of different colors. [1] The Brock string is commonly employed during treatment of convergence insufficiency and other anomalies of binocular vision. It is used to develop skills of convergence as well as to disrupt suppression of one of the eyes.

  4. Vision therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_therapy

    Fusional amplitude and relative fusional amplitude training are designed to alleviate convergence insufficiency. The CITT study (Convergence Insufficiency Treatment Trial) was a randomized, double-blind multi-center trial (high level of reliability) indicating that orthoptic vision therapy is an effective method of treatment of convergence ...

  5. Exotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exotropia

    Although glasses and/or patching therapy, exercises, or prisms may reduce or help control the outward-turning eye in some children, surgery is often required. A common form of exotropia is known as "convergence insufficiency" that responds well to orthoptic vision therapy including exercises. This disorder is characterized by an inability of ...

  6. Suppression (eye) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suppression_(eye)

    Suppression of an eye is a subconscious adaptation by a person's brain to eliminate the symptoms of disorders of binocular vision such as strabismus, convergence insufficiency and aniseikonia. The brain can eliminate double vision by ignoring all or part of the image of one of the eyes. The area of a person's visual field that is suppressed is ...

  7. Vergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vergence

    Convergence insufficiency is a common problem with the eyes, and is the main culprit behind eyestrain, blurred vision, and headaches. [9] [unreliable source?] This problem is most commonly found in children. Near point of convergence (NPC) is measured by bringing an object to the nose and observing when the patient sees double, or one eye ...

  8. Accommodative excess - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accommodative_excess

    Accommodative excess. In ophthalmology, accommodative excess (also known as excessive accommodation or accommodation excess) occurs when an individual uses more than normal accommodation (focusing on close objects) for performing certain near work. Accommodative excess has traditionally been defined as accommodation that is persistently higher ...

  9. Optometric Extension Program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optometric_Extension_Program

    Binocular Vision Disorders: These are issues with how the eyes work together, such as strabismus (eye misalignment) or convergence insufficiency (difficulty bringing the eyes together to focus on near objects). Amblyopia (Lazy Eye): Behavioral optometrists may provide therapy and treatments to improve vision in individuals with amblyopia.
