    Near the point of convergence training, or the ability for both eyes to focus on a single point in space. Base-out prism reading, stereogram cards, computerized training programs are used to improve fusional vergence. The wearing of convex lenses. The wearing of concave lenses.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_prism_dioptre_reflex_test

    The Four Prism Dioptre Reflex Test (also known as the 4 PRT, or 4 Prism Dioptre Base-out Test) is an objective, non-dissociative test used to prove the alignment of both eyes (i.e. the presence of binocular single vision) by assessing motor fusion. [1] Through the use of a 4 dioptre base out prism, diplopia is induced which is the driving force ...

  4. Prism fusion range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_fusion_range

    The prism fusion range ( PFR) or fusional vergence amplitude is a clinical eye test performed by orthoptists, optometrists, and ophthalmologists to assess motor fusion, specifically the extent to which a patient can maintain binocular single vision ( BSV) in the presence of increasing vergence demands. Motor fusion is largely accounted to ...

    A brock string in use. A Brock string (named after Frederick W. Brock) is an instrument used in vision therapy. It consists of a white string of approximately 10 feet in length with three small wooden beads of different colors. The Brock string is commonly employed during treatment of convergence insufficiency and other anomalies of binocular ...

  8. Accommodative convergence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accommodative_convergence

    Accommodative convergence is that portion of the range of inward rotation of both eyes (i.e., convergence) that occurs in response to an increase in optical power for focusing by the crystalline lens (i.e., accommodation ). [1] When the human eye engages the accommodation system to focus on a near object, signal is automatically sent to the ...

    Purpose. whether a person has strabismus. In the fields of optometry and ophthalmology, the Hirschberg test, also Hirschberg corneal reflex test, is a screening test that can be used to assess whether a person has strabismus (ocular misalignment). A photographic version of the Hirschberg test is used to quantify strabismus.
