Acquiring the knowledge and skills to understand: 1) The Physiopathological basis and therapeutical knowledge for paralytic strabismus and restrictive. 2) Main characteristics of nystagmus congenital and acquired 3) Diagnosis and treatment for the upon patologies 4) Physiologic basis of balance and how the ocular pathologies can change them.
The course wants to provide the followinf diagnostic tools:
Barré's vertical
The Romberg Test
The rotation head test
The Bassani test
The Fukuda Unterberger test
The manoeuvre of podalic convercence
Every lesson is divided in theorical part of 90 minutes, and practical part of 30 minutes.
Posturografic exam:
The last lesson is dedicated to the usage of the stabilometric - baropodometric platform.
It will be used for specifical misuration on students who will discuss together about the results.
