Lingering Binocular Vision Issues after a Suspected Concussion: A Case Study

نویسنده

  • Melissa Hunfalvay
چکیده

Past clinical research using eye tracking with patients who have known concussions shown deficits in eye-target synchronization, smooth pursuit eye movements, velocity error and positioning errors [1,2]. Clinical assessments of suspected brain injuries include gross assessments of oculomotor abilities (such as the Vestibular Ocular Motor Screening (VOMS) [3]. However, quantitative, and highly sensitive measures are needed to identify cases that do not fit clear symptomology and/or require ongoing monitoring. Past studies have shown eye tracking as a promising tool in such cases [4]. This case study examines clinical assessments and eye tracking to monitor patient change over time after extensive vision therapy from a suspected concussion.
