25
Optical management of hemianopsia
Sector prisms.
26
Best hemianopsia candidates of sector prisms
Good central vision, no neglect, good mobility.
27
Sector prism basics
Need at least 20. Base direction toward field loss. Usually applied to eye with temporal field loss. Can do binocular sector prism if patient has difficult with diplopia. Allows patient to access peripheral field quicker.
28
Fitting Sector Prism
Begin with fresnel stick on or trial. Place prism edge 2 mm temporal to visual axis. Go on back side if using stick on.
29
Peli Lens
applied to superior and inferior field. Avoid diplopia and allows view of normal and expanded field. Apply the superior first.
30
Sector prism training in office
image shift training-have pt. touch images, decreased va (especially fresnel) wayne
31
sector prism training at home
constant wear, walk in familiar areas first, laser pointing while walking, video games.
32
Orientation and Mobility training
Help people with severe vision loss to determine where they are (orientation) and how to navigate (mobility). Provided in school up to 21. Provided by commission for the blind for legally blind adults.
33
When should O&M training occur?
Before the patient with progressive field loss (RP, progressive glaucoma) loses all their vision.
34
CVA or acquired field loss O&M
Important to put in rehabilitation. Rehab occupation al therapists are skilled in helping patient with acquired field loss lear to scan.
35
O&M basic instruction
Maximize all senses, self protection, sight guided techniques, cane or other technology, strategies to find direction, Navigate street crossings.
36
Central Field Loss Help
Patient with new scotooms are generally not aware of the position and size. Awareness of scotoma may aid in establishing a fixation strategy. Your near VF evaluation can be helpful in demonstrating scotomas to the patient.
37
Training for central field scotoms
Teach them to use PRL (typically inferior or superior to primary scotoma). Do fixations with awareness of stimuli in paracentral field. Saccades with localization (non-reading to reading), pursuit activities.
38

Why do early intervention
Allows to level the playing field for kids with VI.
45
Teachers of the Visually impaired
Training to assist in all aspects of education for children with visual impairment. Usually have 20-30 students and work with IEP. May have specific training for early intervention, Orientation and mobility, deaf blind, brail instruction.
46
Identification of children who need IEP in Oregon
Must be documented by ophthamoligst or optometrist. Acuity is 20/70 or less in better eye with correction, VF is restricted to 20 degrees in better eye, student has progressive visual condition to reduce either acuity or field to the above criteria. Student is unable to be tested but demonstrates inadequate visual function (use with very young children)
47
Optometrist's role for qualifying Children
May not be able to get VA (have lots of tests), In borderline cases or when no VA measurements must see if VI is impacting development or education. Look at other visual dysfunctions like ocular motor control and adaptive skills
48
Are visual adaptations necessary for the child
Ultimately this is not our call. The special education team determine eligibility. Your information and opinion go into the decision.
49
How optometrists help education plan
Get them the best LV device, educate those making the decision. Make sure you educate and counsel.
50
What special ed folks need to know
acuity, which eye dominant, binocular field, is refractive correction helpful, ocular motor restrictions, nystagmus, color vision, contrast sensitivity. Recommendation for education materials, recommendations for LV technology or aids.

Hold at arms length and a light will float behind the eyepiece lens. Can measure them directly.
99
Brightness and telescope
When a telescope is used to view a true point source the retinal image is brighter but does not increase in size. An extended object will have a retinal image increase in size but may become dimmer because of light loss due to reflection or because telescopes exit pupil is smaller than patient's pupil

140
Few with reading cap
Mts X F cap. Technically Mts changes with F cap but this is negligible. Will decrease FOV though
141
Prescribing a telemicroscope
Determine the near magnification required and equivalent Feq 2. Determine desired working distance=Reading cap 3. Solve for telescope magnification
142
When working distance is 50 cm or greater
Use focusable telescopes
143
Work working distance less than 50 cm
use fixed focus telescopes with a reading cap or fixed focus telescopes.
144
Benefit of reading cap
Cap power can be changed and so working distance can vary. Should only be done with monocular correction.
145
Advantages of Telemicroscopes
Greater working distance than spectacle lens, Adjustable wd, possibility of binocular correction beyond 10D. Better illumination of reading material possible, heads free with head borne, wide angle telescopes available for increased FOV
146

159
What does visual spatial perception dependen on?
Gross and fine motor development. Basis of visual motor integration.
160
Temporal lobe
in Ventral path. Contains our visual library for face recognition, form recognition, path recognition. Requires functional primary visual pathway, attention to details, direct fixation, accommodation, convergence, sensory and motor integration for confirmation.

162
Form Perception
Early learning through manipulating of real 3D objects. Gets transferred to 2d representations and language. Difficult for CVI with abstract.
