  2. Convergence insufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence_insufficiency

    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 postural adaptation, among others.

  3. Binocular vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_vision

    Principle of binocular vision with horopter shown. In biology, binocular vision is a type of vision in which an animal has two eyes capable of facing the same direction to perceive a single three-dimensional image of its surroundings. Binocular vision does not typically refer to vision where an animal has eyes on opposite sides of its head and ...

  4. 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.

  5. Orthoptics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthoptics

    Orthoptists are mainly involved with diagnosing and managing patients with binocular vision disorders which relate to amblyopia, eye movement disorders, extraocular muscle balance such as with version, refractive errors, vergence, accommodation imbalances, positive relative accommodation and negative relative accommodation. They work closely ...

  6. Farsightedness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farsightedness

    But, due to this accommodative effort for distant vision, people may complain of eye strain during prolonged reading. [2] [7] If the hypermetropia is high, there will be defective vision for both distance and near. [2] People may also experience accommodative dysfunction, binocular dysfunction, amblyopia, and strabismus. [3]

  7. Vision disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_disorder

    A vision disorder is an impairment of the sense of vision. Vision disorder is not the same as an eye disease . Although many vision disorders do have their immediate cause in the eye, there are many other causes that may occur at other locations in the optic pathway.

  8. Worth 4 dot test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worth_4_dot_test

    The Worth Four Light Test, also known as the Worth's four dot test or W4LT, is a clinical test mainly used for assessing a patient's degree of binocular vision and binocular single vision. Binocular vision involves an image being projected by each eye simultaneously into an area in space and being fused into a single image.

  9. Monofixation syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monofixation_syndrome

    Monofixation syndrome (MFS) (also: microtropia or microstrabismus) is an eye condition defined by less-than-perfect binocular vision. [1] It is defined by a small angle deviation with suppression of the deviated eye and the presence of binocular peripheral fusion. [2] That is, MFS implies peripheral fusion without central fusion.
