Course objectives
SBV vision is ability to see with both eyes single united visual percept. It isn´t inborn, it develops until one year and is refined until six years. It divides artificially into 3 grades (superposition, fusion, stereopis). SBV is important for the selection of profession and also for social relations and life. Significant defects of SBV are strabismus and amblyopia. The target of this paeclinical subject is to introduce students to the terminology, physiology and patophysiology of the SBV.
Learning outcomes
After this course of class exercises, student will be able to define a term single binocular vision (SBV). Student will know the components of SBV vision and he or she will also know the factors that affect the correct development of SBV. Student will be introduced to the general patophysiology of SBV defects such as suppression and anomalous retinal correspondence. Student will understand the term concommitant strabismus and he or she will know its aetiology and reaction of sensoric and motoric part of SBV to it. Student will understand the term amblyopia (lafy eye), heterophoria, paralytic strabismus, nystagmus and will know the patophysiology of this entities.
Syllabus
  • Decorrelated fusion (binocularity in anisometropia, binokularita při anizometropii, IOBS - interocular blur suppression, binocularity in strabismus, binocular rivalry, patophysiology of amblyogenity...)
  • Sensoric arm of SBV in strabismus (sensorial adaptation and perceptual learning, complex visual field in heterotropi, monocular, anomalous retinal correspondence zones, subnormal binocularity ....)
  • Motoric arm of SBV in strabismus (motoric adaptation, sthrre-step-adaptation servomechanismus according to Guytona, active Miller pulleys, contracture, ....)
  • Etiology of strabismus (developmental teories: congenital, accommodational refractive, accommodational non-refractive, and neuroanatomical teories: intaruterine embolisation, heterotopy of pulelys, anomalies of pulelys, myopaties, ...)
  • Binocularity in heterophorias (dynamic, tonic and anatomic zones, astenopia...)
  • Biknocularita in paralytic strabismus (etiology, compensation head posture, torticollis, diplopia, .....)
  • Binocularita in nystagmus (etiology, null position, compensation head posture, ...)
  • T|eaching will be supplementda by actual lectures of experts in othoptics and/or strabismology.
