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 lectures, student will be able to define a term single binocular vision (SBV) and will be able to desctibe it's advantages. Student will know the components of SBV vision. Student will be introduced to the anatomy and physiology of the projection component of the SBV. He or she will know basic terminology and understand the principles of related processes: visual direction, retinal correspondence, horopter, Panum space, receptive field, magnocellular and parvocellular patway, etc. Student will be introduced to the anatomy and physiology of the analytical and association components of the SBV. He or she will know basic terminology and understand the principles of related processes: primary visual cortex, higher visual cortex, magnocellular and parvocellular pathway, dorsal and ventral stream, monocular dominance columns, isoorientational columns, fusion on the first binocular neuron, disparity signal, blur signal, proximity signal, etc. Student will be introduced to the anatomy and physiology of the motoric component of the SBV. He or she will know basic terminology and understand the principles of related processes: duction, vesrsion, vergence, dual-interactive model of vergence-accommodation synkinesys, etc. 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 and understand sensorial adaptation and sensorial learning.
Syllabus
  • Complex multilevel nature of fusion (introduction, division, ...).
  • Sensory arm of fusion (subjective visual direction, retinal correspondence, physiological diplopia, functional neuroanatomy of visual pathway and V1, convergence of the corresponding signals, first binocular neuron, receptive fields, …).
  • Motor compnent of the fusion (duction, version, vergence, Shering´s , Hering´s , Listing´s law, neural control of saccades and vergencies, fixation disparity, …).
  • Analytical and psychogenic component of fusion (harmony conflict and disparity of corresponding signals, detection and processing of disparity signal and blur signal, Panum´s fusional area, monocular and binocular stereopsis, vergence - accommodation synkinesis, relative accommodation, relative vergence, monocular dominant column of V1, detection of edges and contrast, dorsal and ventral stream, unimodal, polymodal, supramodal, gnostic areas, ...).
  • Binocular vision development (prestereopsis, development of the fusion’s components), sensorial adaptation and perceptul larning...
