What's the equation to find the actual vergence demand when using vectos?
Prentice's rule:

P=Fd where F is 2.50 for a 40cm working distance and d is the separation (in cm) of the target
T or F: When working with vectos, increasing the working distance decreases the vergence demand
T
Vectograms:

1. Which one is a single vecto that has BO-->BI within itself?

5. In chicago skyline, the plane has relative ____ and the buildings have relative ___ at ortho. This is good for what? (smooth, step or jump?)
6. This vecto has more BO as you go from the center --> periphery.
1. figure 8

4. bug on a string
5. brewster
What are the 5 things we can train with brock string?
1. anti-suppression
2. fixation (fixing ESO or EXO posture)
3. jumps (although i think this is only convergence therapy so it really is "steps" (?))
4. NPC work
5. Bug on a string (voluntary convergence)
Tranaglyph disadvantages:

1. Inequalities in ____ ____ may promote suppression
2. Low contrast of print = low _____
3. Images printed with outlines only= low ____
1. retinal luminance
2. stimulus to fuse
3. stimulus to fuse
Vergence Tx:

1. BIM makes it ______ for divergence and _____ for convergence.

2. BOP makes it _____ for divergence and _____ for convergence.
1. difficult; easier

2. easier; difficult
Classical model vs. Brock-Flax model for Vergence tx:

1. Which deals with non-strabismics who have no impediment to fusion?

2. Which goes from 1st-->3rd degree targets?
1. Brock-Flax (classical is strabs/non-strabs with deep suppression)
2. Classical (B-F is 3rd to 1st to gradually decrease cues for stereopsis)
What 3 conditions (mentioned in the vergence tx packet) accept plus at near?
CE, false CI (really an AI), basic ESO
Prescribing prism (for relief):

1. ____: compensating fusional vergence should be 2 times the phoria. What's the equation?

2. _____: patient should function in the middle 1/3 of their fusional vergence range. What's the equation?
1. Sheard's; Prism= 2/3(phoria) - 1/3(compensating vergence)
Compensating: for an EXO, this would be PFV...

2. Percival's; Prism= 1/3(greater of lateral limits) - 1/3(lesser of lateral limits)...negative number: pt doesn't need prism...EXO= negative number is plugged into equation and ESO= positive number plugged in
What is the preferred method for Rx'ing horizontal relieving prism?
Fixation disparity analysis
What is the AO vectographic slide used for?
Fixation disparity analysis
What are the five stages of vergence tx?
1. Feedback cues
2. Smooth vergence training
3. Step vergence training
4. Jump vergence training
5. Integration (BIM, BOP, versions, saccades)
How can you make aperture rule a jump therapy tool?
you can use TWO setups!
T or F: The only vectogram that can be used for jump therapy is chicago skyline.
F! All of them can...you just need to use 2 of them..one on BO setting and one on BI setting
With aperture rule, each card has a change of how many prism diopters?
2.5
What's the vision tx sequence for CI?
1. Early: feedback cues (quoits), develop voluntary convergence and feeling of convergence (brock string work), smooth convergence (other vectos), normalize accommodation.
2. smooth divergence (vectos), PFV and NFV facility (step/jump) (vectos, aperture rule, eccentric circles...)
3. convergence-->divergence demands, integrate with accommodation and ocular motility demands (BIM/BOP)
What is the vision tx sequence for CE?
1. Early: feedback cues (quoits), normalize near NFV (smooth--vectos w/BI demand), develop feeling of diverging, normalize accommodation.
2. normalize PFV (smooth--vectos on BO), normalize PFV and NFV facility (jump--multiple vectos, dual aperture rule..)
3. convergence-->divergence demands, integrate with accommodation and ocular motility demands (BIM/BOP)
What is the vision tx for DI?
1. Early: feedback cues (quoits), develop feeling of divergence, normalize NFV at NEAR (smooth--vectos on BI), normalize accommodation.
2. normalize NEAR PFV (smooth-- vectos on BO), PFV and NFV facility (step/jump) (vectos (can do multiple), aperture rule (can do dual), eccentric circles...)
3. normalize smooth NFV at INTERMEDIATE AND FAR DISTANCES (vectos on the wall), normalize NFV facility at INTERMEDIATE AND FAR dist.
What is vision tx for DE?
Phase 1: NEAR tx: feedback cues, train PFV AND NFV using 3rd degree fusion targets, develop diplopia awareness, normalize accomm.

Phase 2: NEAR tx: 2nd and 1st degree targets (wheatstone stereoscope), work on PFV and NFV facility at near (step/jump)
