Clinical orthoptics - Fiona J. Rowe

This textbook has been written for ophthalmologists undertaking their membership and fellowship examinations and for orthoptic undergraduate students. Qualified orthoptists, general ophthalmologists and optometrists will also find it useful as a guide.

Orthoptic investigations and the diagnosis and management of strabismus and ocular motility disorders are described, accompanied by numerous illustrations, including equipment.
Section 1 gives an outline of the anatomy and innervation of the extraocular muscles, principles and techniques of orthoptic investigative tests and theory of binocular single vision. Sections 2 and 3 outline the various types of concomitant and incomitant strabismus and ocular motility disturbances and the application of orthoptic investigation. Section 4, the appendix, includes many of the orthoptic abbreviations, a glossary of definitions and a number of case histories of strabismus and ocular motility disorders used in practice.
