A basic tenet shared by behavioral optometrists is that symptoms and the processes which create them are not the same. Consequently, a major challenge for us is the need to unravel the dynamics in our patients' lives and to understand how they respond to stressors. It is often those responses which trigger their symptoms and difficulties. This book explores the dynamics that trigger symptoms in patients and demonstrates how, with an understanding of these issues, we can guide patients to personal insight and improved vision.

One of the most challenging aspects of vision care is the establishment of clear single binocular vision in patients with strabismus and its associated conditions. This book provides a comprehensive reference for the complete care of these patients and an overview model of visual processing, presenting a practical guide for evaluation of these patients, which leads to accurate diagnosis and development of reasonable prognosis. Presents an overview of general management strategy and treatment options, including lens, prism, occlusion, pharmacological, surgical, and active vision therapies. Laid out in a sequential problem-solving style that walks the reader through each step in the management process, treatment flow charts and case studies highlight this process. The final chapter presents a core group of techniques described in a how-to fashion.

The detailed procedures and principles that the author shares come from a long and insightful first-hand experience as a vision therapist, working with literally hundreds of people who needed to find the hidden self they were unable to discover by themselves.

Diagnosis and Management of Special Populations

Maino, Dominick M.

The case histories in this book are about people who endured devastating health problems, or survived massive accidents, sometimes because of miracle surgery, but found their lives had become nightmares. The problems might be obvious, like blurred or double vision, or more subtle like dizziness, nausea, clumsiness, poor balance and inability to concentrate. Often, as they trekked from doctor to doctor, they were told, Sorry, that's the way it is, there's nothing to be done. Yet there are solutions. Each case history tells of someone who eventually was helped by an optometrist who specialized in behavioral vision care. Each found immeasurable relief through optometric vision therapy. When you learn how to Focus Your Mind's Eye, health, learning and behavior problems are often eased because hidden vision difficulties are eased.

This is a book on perceptual-motor training for children by A.J. Kirshner, O.D., a consultant to the Learning Clinic at McGill University and the Montreal Children's Hospital. After many years of experience providing optometric vision therapy in oculomotor skills, binocular vision, eye-hand coordination, body image, special awareness and intermodal integration, it was apparent to the author that in order to maintain the interest of the child, his program must be translated into games. This book was organized with the case histories of the children who taught him the principles. It is a book of ideas that is not to be used in a rigid manner but with warmth and imagination that can bring the ideas to life. Success does not depend on knowing but on doing which puts knowledge into practice. Kirshner's kinesthetic program for integrating and expanding the sensory lives of children also unites the visual and auditory imagination of the child.
