Orthoptic training - what does this mean

Orthoptic training is a form of physical therapy that is used to treat conditions that affect eye movement and coordination. it involves a series of exercises designed to improve visual acuity, eye tracking, and eye-hand coordination. these exercises are tailored to the individual's needs and can include activities such as tracking a moving object, focusing on objects at different distances, and using eye-hand coordination to complete tasks. orthoptic training can help improve a person's vision and help them to function better in daily activities.

What happens during the disease - orthoptic training

Orthoptic training is a type of therapy used to treat a variety of binocular vision disorders. it is based on the principle of neuroplasticity, which states that the brain can learn and adapt to new visual information. the goal of orthoptic training is to retrain the brain to process visual information more effectively, allowing the eyes to work together and improve binocular vision. this is achieved through a series of exercises that challenge the visual system and promote changes in the way the brain processes visual information. these exercises can help improve coordination between the eyes and improve binocular vision.

  • Ocular alignment testing
  • Orthoptic training

Treatment and Medical Assistance

Main Goal: To improve vision and reduce the symptoms of the disease.
  • Eye exercises to improve eye coordination
  • Eye muscle training to improve focus and tracking
  • Visual acuity training to improve clarity of vision
  • Stereopsis training to improve depth perception
  • Peripheral vision training to improve peripheral awareness
  • Eye-hand coordination training to improve coordination between the eyes and hands
  • Visual field expansion training to improve the ability to see objects in the peripheral vision
  • Visual processing training to improve the ability to interpret visual information

Orthoptic training - Prevention

Orthoptic training is an effective method of preventing the development of certain binocular vision disorders. it involves a series of exercises designed to improve the coordination of the two eyes and to reduce eye strain. it is also used to strengthen the eye muscles, improve eye coordination and reduce symptoms of eyestrain. orthoptic training is typically recommended for people with strabismus, amblyopia, convergence insufficiency, and other binocular vision disorders.
