Subject Name:
BINOCULAR VISION -II

Code(Credit) :CUTM1799 (3+2+0)

Objective

This course provides knowledge on both strabismus & non strabismus binocular vision anomalies, its classification, etiology, necessary investigations, diagnosis and management.

Learning outcome

On completion of the course, students will be able to

●      differentiate different types of strabismic anomalies - horizontal, vertical, torsional, paralytical & mechanical restrictive.

●      identify non strabismic anomalies related to accommodation & convergence

●      perform necessary investigations & its interpretation

●      provide the appropriate management
