Course objectives
Binocular vision is ability to see with both eyes single image. It isn´t inborn, it develops until one year and is refined until six years. It is divided artificially into 3 grades. Binocular vision is important for the selection of profession and also for social relations and life. Significant defects of single binocular vision (SBV) are strabismus and amblyopia. Strabismus is treated with glasses, occlusion, pleoptics (conservative treatement of amblyopia), surgery and ortoptics (conservative treatment of binocularity). Paralytic strabismus arises from palsy of oculomotor nerves, muscles or defect of central nervous system. Palsy also manifests as a eye´s deviation and consequent SBV defects. Treatment then involves symptomatic procedures (occlusion), spectacle correction, exercise and/or surgical treatment. After this course of lectures/exercise/seminars, student will be able to define a terms pleoptics, ortoptics and divide the single therapeutic procedures according to the applied type of binocular vision dissociation, according to optical conditions (dissociation in the device and real space) and according to their suitability for domestic use. Student will be able to describe the principles and performe practical implementation of pleoptic methods based on the restrictions of the dominant eye and methods that develop (stimulate) vision of amblyopic eye and procedures for normalization of eccentric fixation. Student will know the principles and practical implementations of orthoptic methods focused on the treatment of motor and sensory arm of binocular vision and their mutual synkinetic integration. Student will have a basic knowledge of the history of orthoptics as a distinct subject.
