horizontal heterophoria

assalamualaikumwarahmatullah dan selamat sejahtera

topik paling best dlm subjek BVOM ni mstlah

  1. heterophoria & vergence anomalies
  2. accommodation anomalies 


HETEROPHORIA

  • also known as phoria
  • also known as latent tropia
  • also known as latent strabismus
  • in a layman word it is call as 'JULING'

For horizontal phoria, we have esophoria (inwards) & exophoria (outwards)
SO, how to measure the phoria?
  1. maddox wing test
  2. maddox rod test
  3. cover test
  4. freeman unit
  5. howell card

ESOPHORIA
  • measure with base in prism.
  • must correct with base out prism.
  • we must look up for the negative fusional reserve (NFV) and positive relative accommodation(PRA).
  • patient (Pt's) may have convergence excess (CE) or divergence insufficiency (DI) or basic esophoria (basic EP') . 
  • As an optometrist, to treat esophoria, we must see the sheard  criterion and perceival criterion.
  • we can give:
  1. prism prescription
  2. spherical alteration
  3. vision therapy

EXOPHORIA
  • measure with base out prism.
  • must correct with base in prism.
  • we must look up for the positive fusional reserve (PFV) and negative relative accommodation (NRA).
  • patient (Pt's) may have divergence excess (DE) or convergence insufficiency (CI) or basic exophoria (basic XP') . 
  • As an optometrist, to treat exophoria, we must see the sheard  criterion and perceival criterion.
  • we can give:
  1. prism prescription
  2. spherical alteration
  3. vision therapy
