Convergence Insufficiency Assessment

The video discusses convergence insufficiency, a vision problem affecting learning. It explains the condition, its symptoms, and how it can be diagnosed and treated. The video includes a practical demonstration of testing methods using the RAF ruler and concludes with treatment recommendations.

What is the main topic discussed in the video?

• A new optometry technique

• Childhood education

• General eye health

• Convergence insufficiency

What does convergence refer to in the context of vision?

• The ability to focus both eyes on a close object

• The ability to see in the dark

• The ability to distinguish colors

• The ability to see far objects clearly

At what ages is convergence insufficiency most commonly observed?

• In elderly individuals

• In infants

• In teenagers

• In people in their 20s and 30s

Which of the following is NOT a symptom of convergence insufficiency?

• Blurring of print

• Difficulty in concentration

• Frontal headaches

• Improved night vision

What tool is used in the video to test for convergence insufficiency?

• RAF ruler

• Snellen chart

• Ophthalmoscope

• Phoropter

During the test, what indicates the 'break point'?

• When the patient sees two images

• When the patient sees one image

• When the patient sees a clear image

• When the patient sees a blurred image

What is the normal range for convergence in centimeters?

• 16 to 20 cm

• 11 to 15 cm

• 6 to 10 cm

• 1 to 5 cm

What is considered convergence excess?

• When convergence is between 6 to 10 cm

• When convergence is exactly 10 cm

• When convergence is more than 15 cm

• When convergence is less than 5 cm

Why is it important to repeat the convergence test multiple times?

• To ensure the patient is comfortable

• To check for color blindness

• To get an accurate measurement

• To test different eye muscles

What is the primary treatment for convergence insufficiency mentioned in the video?

• Surgery

• Vision therapy

• Medication

• Laser treatment
