This comprehensive text explains the diagnostic and optometric
management procedures involved in the care of patients with
binocular vision anomalies. It is a clinically oriented text that
can be used by the student as well as the clinician. It provides
thorough descriptions of the many binocular vision anomalies,
describes the necessary testing procedures to correctly diagnose
each disorder, and suggests the most appropriate management.
Featuring many illustrations, photos and case studies, particularly
on strabismus and incomitant deviations, it presents an orderly
practical approach to diagnosis, differential diagnosis and
treatment decision making. * Every topic area in binocular vision
anomalies is included, from heterophoria and accommodative
disorders to severe strabismic disorders. * Discusses not only the
most common forms of treatment for a particular anomaly, but also
discusses less known but deserving treatment alternatives,
providing the reader with an understanding of the full range of
treatment possibilities. * In each chapter, an anomaly is
identified, then classified according to its significant symptoms
and clinical findings. Once a diagnosis is certain, the appropriate
forms of treatment are discussed. * Editors Rutstein and Daum are
well known and respected in their field. They are scientists who
have lectured extensively, have written many articles and have a
wealth of clinical experience. * Organized to take the reader from
the base to the tip of the "pyramid" of binocular vision. Sensory
anomalies are discussed first, integrative anomalies next, and
motor anomalies last. * An invaluable reference for both
optometrists and ophthalmologists. * Features many references and
case studies. * Contains approximately 309 illustrations and
photographs, providing the reader with a clear, visual guide to the
disorders and their management. * Features clinical pearls succinct
bits of "clinical wisdom" that are boxed within the text for easy
reference. * Outlines appear at the beginning of each chapter,
giving the reader a quick overview of chapter content. * Glossary
appears at the end of the book, defining key words that appear in
the text.
