Management of Central Sensory Deficits Following Trauma

Abstract

Trauma can disrupt single binocular vision by interfering with the sensory requirements for fusion. Injuries to the eye that can interfere with sensory fusion by disrupting the fusion stimulus (image) are discussed. Central disruptions of fusion that can occur with head injury are described along with diagnostic techniques and management strategies for the associated diplopia.
