Role of Optometrist in Primary Eye Care

By

 


An optometrist can see changes in the back of the eye in the macular region where  basically the cells are separating or there's different fluid that deposit in that area and causes changes in your business that can cause warped vision or wavy vision. It can also cause you some small spots of vision loss that you might not necessarily notice.

These are the small things that a lot of people don't know because they are fearful.

Some people enjoy watching TV alot and some people are more into reading books. In this case an optometrist is going to be catered more towards that. And so those looking at specific activities that they want to continue doing is the way  than an optometrist will progress into helping them with their vision needs. And the most important thing is just letting people know that if they are diagnosed with an eye condition or an eye disease, that life isn't over, that we can keep them seeing and still doing the things that they want to. 

There are accomodated devices like glasses, telescopes, magnifiers, that an optometrist can use to try improve the quality of a person's life. And often someone is distraught by their lack of vision when people don't know how much we can do to improve it. 

There's also rehabilitation techniques that an optometrist can use to help train to use the vision that is left and be able to use it to their best potential. 

They can make people aware about different types of lightning and how they can affect which they're seeing.  They also do therapy that can help people to be able to start to adapt more to their devices.

Eye Movement Dysfunction

By
The rotational movements of intorsion and extorsion are necessary to keep a viewed object stable and positioned on the appropriate part of the retina as the head is tilted from side to side. To illustrate imagine standing upright and looking at an arrow that is pointing superiorly.  Now tilt your head 45 degrees to the right, does the arrow move with your head? Now point at a 45 degree angle, hopefully not. Because of intorsion and extortion the arrow should still appear to be pointing superiorly. In this case the right eye has been intowarded and the left eye has been equivalently extorted so that the image falls on the same part of the retina as before the head tilt. Obviously our eye has a limited range of intorsion and extorsion. They cannot spin completely around within the orbit. And if we were to stand on our head the arrow would appear to change direction and appear to point inferiorly. Now, lets look at the movements produced by each of the extra oculum muscles. Medial and...
