Convergence insufficiency
Convergence insufficiency or convergence disorder is a sensory and neuromuscular anomaly of the binocular vision system, characterized by a reduced ability of the eyes to turn towards each other, or sustain convergence.

Diplopia
Diplopia, commonly known as double vision, is the simultaneous perception of two images of a single object that may be displaced horizontally, vertically, diagonally (i.e., both vertically and horizontally), or rotationally in relation to each other.

Dissociated vertical deviation
Dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) is an eye condition which occurs in association with a squint, typically infantile esotropia.

Esotropia
Esotropia is a form of strabismus in which one or both eyes turns inward.

Exotropia
Exotropia is a form of strabismus where the eyes are deviated outward.

Extraocular muscles
The extraocular muscles are the six muscles that control movement of the eye and one muscle that controls eyelid elevation (levator palpebrae).

Eye care professional
An eye care professional (ECP) is an individual who provides a service related to the eyes or vision.

Eye movement
Eye movement includes the voluntary or involuntary movement of the eyes, helping in acquiring, fixating and tracking visual stimuli.

Eyepatch
An eyepatch is a small patch that is worn in front of one eye.

Glasses
Glasses, also known as eyeglasses or spectacles, are devices consisting of glass or hard plastic lenses mounted in a frame that holds them in front of a person's eyes, typically using a bridge over the nose and arms which rest over the ears.

Glaucoma
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases which result in damage to the optic nerve and vision loss.

Haploscope
A haploscope is an optical device for presenting one image to one eye and another image to the other eye.

International Orthoptic Association
The International Orthoptic Association represents over 20,000 orthoptists, in over 20 countries.

Negative relative accommodation
Negative relative accommodation (NRA) was proposed by Joseph Kearney of Oxford University in 1967 as a measure of the maximum ability to relax accommodation while maintaining clear, single binocular vision.

Pediatric ophthalmology
Pediatric ophthalmology is a sub-speciality of ophthalmology concerned with eye diseases, visual development, and vision care in children.

Pinhole glasses
Pinhole glasses, also known as stenopeic glasses, are eyeglasses with a series of pinhole-sized perforations filling an opaque sheet of plastic in place of each lens.

Positive relative accommodation
Positive relative accommodation (PRA) is a measure of the maximum ability to stimulate accommodation while maintaining clear, single binocular vision.

Refraction
Refraction is the change in direction of wave propagation due to a change in its transmission medium.
New!!: Orthoptics and Refraction · See more »
Refractive error
Refractive error, also known as refraction error, is a problem with focusing light accurately onto the retina due to the shape of the eye.

Sonographer
A sonographer, or ultrasonographer, is a healthcare professional, who specialise in the use of ultrasonic imaging devices to produce diagnostic images, scans, videos, or 3D volumes of anatomy and diagnostic data, frequently a radiographer but may be any healthcare professional with the appropriate training.
