Vergence postion = ?
|
LE position - RE position. (eye position to the left is positive while eye position to the right is negative)
|
|
Measuring vergence in prism diopoters.
|
At 1m, 1cm deviation = 1PD. 1P = .57degrees.
|
|
MEasuring Meter-Angle.
|
1 MA is amount of convergence required to view and object at 1 meter.
|
|
What is the near triad?
|
Convergence accompanied by , accommodation, and pupillary constriction all.
|
|
what does puillary constriction help with?
|
Increases depth of field so there is less accomodation that needs to be done.
|
|
A crossed disparity gives...
|
perception of near, and a stimulus to convergence.
|
|
An uncrossed disparity gives...
|
a perception of far, and a stimulus to divergence
|
|
What defines the strength of the accomodative-vergence crosslink?
|
AC:A ratio
|
|
a blur stimulus can drive vergence via...
|
accomodation-vergence crosslink
|
|
A disparity stimulus can drive vergence via..
|
convergence accomodation crosslink
|
|
The convergence assomodation crosslink gets it's stregth from..
|
CA/C ratio
|
|
Besides spiarity and blur, what other cues may drive vergence movements?
|
Size, texture, looming.
|
|
What are size, texture, and looming use for when talking about vergence?
|
They are used to fine tune eye position following an eye movement.
|
|
Another way of saying proximal vergenace?
|
psychic vergence or voluntary convergence
|
|
What is tonic vergence?
|
Restig state vergence.
|
|
LAtency of vergence is..
|
200ms
|
|
Do vonverge or diverge faster?
|
Depends. Convergence may be faster. The speed of divergence depends on the start position before the movement.
|
|
During head rotation while fixated on a near target, VOR gain must ____ and the two eye rotate by ______ .
|
Be greater than 1, different amounts
|
|
What causes the VOR gain to be > 1?
|
Context of viewing a near target.
|
|
IS there evidence to suggest that vergence angle or visual information is used to modulate VOR gain?
|
NO
|
|
Phoria adatation changes which type of vergence?
|
Tonic
|
|
Phoria adaption is fast or slow?
|
Slow
|
|
How so we get phoria adaptation? (without prisms)
|
Prolonged viewing of a near stimulus.
|
|
Helmholtz proposed that in vergeance, each eye is conrtolled..
|
Independently
|
|
Hering proposed that in vergence that each eye is controlled..
|
Together. That it is and independent system from conjugate eye movements. That it is a some of vergence and conjugate eye movements.
|
|
The movement of the RE =
|
Conjugate - vergence/2
|
|
The movement of the left eye =
|
Conjugate + vergence/2
|
|
According to Hering, where are the conjugate and vergence movements summed?
|
At the level of the motor neurons.
|
|
The midbrain near response cells are located in the ____
|
suppaoculomotor area, which are 1-2mm dorsolateral to the oculomotor nucleus.
|
|
The SOA has direct monosynaptic connections to ____
|
medial rectus nerurons
|
|
What is the (non clinical) evidence that supports Hering's framework?
|
During vergence movements, neuronal signals were changing in the SOA. There was no change in activity while performing saccades .
|
|
What is the clinical evidence supporting Hering?
|
INO.If you have billateral INO, there is a blialteral lesion of the MLF, so the abducens loses signal from omn. The SOA has connections that arent affecte, so you can still make verngence movements but not saccades.
|
|
what are the parts of the brain for disparity encoding?
|
v1, MT/MST, LIP
|
|
Other parts of the brain involved in motor control of vergence?
|
FEF (vergence neruons close to saccades neuron, SEF (predictive eye movements)
|
|
What does a lesion in the dorsal vermis do to vergence movements?
|
esodeviation, variation of alignment with orbital postion, disconjugacy of saccades and problems in phoria adaptation.
|
|
Where to the FN and PIN recieve projections from?
|
The vermis
|
|
The do the FN and the PIN project to?
|
the SOA
|
|
FN has neurons related to _____
|
convergence
|
|
PIN has neruons related to ____
|
diuvergence
|
|
Flocculus is most likely important for what?
|
changing VOR gain with vergence angle
|
|
NRTP.
|
prijects to the vermis and also directly to FN and PIN. Vergence cells lie close to SP and Sac
|
|
SC
|
stimulation of rostral part can supress vergence and saccades
|
|
What happens to the lens as we age?
|
Becomes thicker, loses ability to chagne shape.
|
|
What happens to the ciliary mucle's ability to contract as we age?
|
Stays intact
|
|
What muscles are under neural control during acomodation?
|
Only the ciliary muscle. SO there is no antagonist muscle.
|
|
Innervation of ciliary musle is mostly from?
|
Paraympathitei from edinger westfall nucleus amd siliary ganglion.
|
|
IS there any sympathetic innveration in acomodation?
|
maybe provide inhibitory for push pull system..maybe
|
