Binocular single Vision

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---

When a normal individual fixes on an object

of regard, the image is formed on the fovea

of both the eyes separately; but the individual

--- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---


perceives a single image.

This state is called binocular single vision.

Grades of binocular single vision

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---


Grade I -- Simultaneous perception.

Grade I --Fusion.

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

Grade I I-- Stereopsis.

Grade I -- Simultaneous perception. Ability to see two dissimilar

objects simultaneously.

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---


Grade I --Fusion. It consists of the power to superimpose two

incomplete but similar images to form one complete image.

Grade I I-- Stereopsis : Depth perception.

AMBLYOPIA: DEFINITION

Amblyopia refers to partial loss of

vision in one or both eyes, in the

absence of any detectable organic

cause.
