Publisher's Synopsis
Binocular vision investigation is often considered to be a confusing and challenging subject. Deficient investigation leads practitioners to become frustrated, lack confidence in the diagnosis and to choose inadequate management. Our view is that difficulty in obtaining the correct diagnosis occurs as a consequence of substandard investigation; namely, using the wrong test and conducting the correct tests but using deficient techniques. We have attempted to remedy this by writing the second edition of our guide which has a practical emphasis to binocular vision investigation. Our aim was to prepare a practical guide to demystifying diagnosis in binocular vision anomalies. The content is based on our understanding of current standard clinical practice, extensive experience of diagnosing and managing binocular vision problems and teaching binocular vision at student and practitioner levels. We have not attempted to cover all aspects of binocular vision and this book is not meant to be a reference text. It is intended to be a step-by-step guide to assist the practitioner in developing and improving clinical techniques to enable accurate diagnoses and successful management. By using this book to improve their binocular vision investigation practitioners will be able to better assist their patients.
