This x-intercept is also referred to as aligning prism or – in earlier times – as associated phoria when the subjective nonius method was used (sP 0) the slope of the curve near zero prism load; Fig. 3: Fixation disparity as a function of the forced vergence angle which is induced by base-in prisms and base-out prisms in front of the eyes.
The Maddox rod test is a subjective method to measure horizontal and vertical deviations of the eyes, using a red line and a white light. The double Maddox rod test can also assess torsion and cyclotropias, by comparing the angles of two red lines.
Dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) is an eye condition that causes one eye to drift upward spontaneously or after being covered. It is often associated with squints and can be diagnosed and treated by ophthalmologists.
Maddox wing is an instrument for measuring strabismus (eye misalignment) by dissociating the eyes with septa and arrows. Learn about its indications, equipment, method, interpretation, advantages, disadvantages and considerations.
Exophoria is a tendency of the eyes to deviate outward, usually mild and with fusion possible. It can be caused by refractive errors, divergence excess, or convergence insufficiency, and is common in infancy and childhood.
Heterophoria is an eye condition where the eyes are not straight at rest position, but can be aligned by fusion. Learn about the types, signs, symptoms, causes, diagnosis and treatment of heterophoria.
A prism is a polyhedron with two congruent polygonal bases and parallelogram sides. Learn about oblique, right, regular, uniform and other types of prisms, their volume, surface area, symmetry and related polytopes.
The bases of a matroid characterize the matroid completely: a set is independent if and only if it is a subset of a basis. Moreover, one may define a matroid to be a pair (,), where is the ground-set and is a collection of subsets of , called "bases", with the following properties: [7] [8]
