One of the unheralded pioneers in our field was Dr. Albert A. Sutton. Al, as he was affectionately known, was a key contributor to many of the theories espoused by his contemporaries ranging from Dr. A.M. Skeffington to Dr. Robert Kraskin to Dr. Gerald Getman. Equally important, he was a mentor to many younger optometrists in our field. Best known for his lectures and writing about “Building A Visual Space World”, he also helped his colleagues and mentees build and refine their own models of vision. Because he was so humble and unassuming, this personal perspective aims to make his legacy better known to optometrists who may not be acquainted with the significance of his work.
Albert A. Sutton博士是我们这个领域一位不知名的先驱。人们亲切地称他为阿尔,他是他同时代人所支持的许多理论的关键贡献者,从A.M.斯凯芬顿到罗伯特·克拉斯金医生再到杰拉特曼医生。同样重要的是,他是我们这个领域许多年轻验光师的导师。他以“构建视觉空间世界”的讲座和著作而闻名,他还帮助他的同事和学员建立和完善他们自己的视觉模型。因为他是如此的谦逊和谦逊,这个个人的观点旨在使他的遗产更好地了解那些可能不了解他的工作的重要性的验光师。

Background Wall-eyed Bilateral Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia (WEBINO) is an ocular motility disorder characterized by bilateral exotropia in primary gaze, bilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia with defective adduction of both eyes and nystagmus of the contralateral eye on abduction. Convergence is impaired because the lesion is in the midbrain. The etiology of WEBINO includes demyelination, stroke, and tumors, but midbrain infarction is the most common.1 Although extraocular muscle surgery and botulinum toxin injections are typically used for management2 of WEBINO, neuro-optometric rehabilitation can be utilized as an effective option to improve vision. Case Report A 39-year-old Caucasian male with non-traumatic brain injury due to left intraparenchymal hemorrhage from stroke, presented with WEBINO and multiple vision signs and symptoms, including blurred vision, alternating exotropia, diplopia, and strabismus. During the previous 8 months, he participated in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. He had difficulty participating in his therapies due to his vision issues. Single vision distance lenses were prescribed to improve vision clarity and 6 in-office neuro-optometric rehabilitation sessions were administered to improve range of motion of eye movements and to improve vision. Conclusions Neuro-optometric rehabilitation utilizes a systematic approach to treating patients with binocular vision dysfunction, while integrating cognitive, motor, and sensory skills. Prognosis is optimized with an individualized approach. Top-down processing stimulates the brain in a more direct way to elicit plasticity-mediated motor relearning.3 In this case, extraocular muscle surgery and botulinum toxin injections were not optimal choices and neuro- optometric rehabilitation was utilized to manage WEBINO and improve quality of life.

Following a mild TBI, symptoms of diplopia and photosensitivity are common. Findings such as a vertical deviation, may contribute to exasperating symptoms. Treatment of vertical deviations may cause hesitation for the provider as there is not a consensus in relation to prescribing vertical prism amounts. In regards to photosensitivity, fortunately most diminishes in intensity over the first couple of months following injury. Further treatment, including tints and sunglasses, improves patient comfort.

Measuring and analyzing pediatric visual acuity is specialty level care within the spectrum of pediatric eye and vision care. Vision development, child development in the context of testability, and examiner ability to manage child behavior drive test selection and success in obtaining a valid representation of the child’s true visual acuity. A broad array of tests, test methods, and strategies to obtain valid VA results are required. Analyzing the result of a visual acuity test involves judging its validity and rating it on a developmental scale.

The area of traumatic brain injury has received considerable attention in the medical and related health care communities over the past three decades. One major focus has been on the constellation of visual deficits and correlated symptoms frequently found in these patients. A subset of intense focus has involved the use of objectively-based vision testing for diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic purposes. The assembled bibliography provides a listing of the major published research papers and chapters over the past 30 years involving objective vision testing using an array of instrumentations and protocols. This should help both the clinician and researcher obtain a broad perspective in this important and rapidly evolving area.

The standard treatment of amblyopia involves punitive intervention through patching or pharmacology that inhibits the fellow eye and disrupts binocular vision. With regard to occlusion, the results of this nearly 300-year approach has proven to be improvable given the psychosocial difficulties it presents along with its frequently questionable long-term outcomes. This paper presents the Sanet-Vergara treatment protocol for anisometropic amblyopia that avoids punitive measures and emphasizes full- time wear of the Best Binocular Prescriptive lenses (BBP). A retrospective record review of 28 patients shows the high degree of success obtained with significant improvements in visual acuity of the right eye, F(2,54)=12.57, p<0.001 and left eye, F(2,54)=31.80, p<0.001, bi-ocular visual acuity measured with polarized screen F(2,54)=50.40, p<0.001, and stereoacuity F(2,54)=14.57, p<0.001 The positive outcomes were retained for up to one year after cessation of the treatment protocol.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelop- mental disorder estimated to affect one in 44 children in the United States. Many people with ASD have reading comprehension difficulties, sensorimotor abnormalities, and motor function impairments. In this study, the effects of implementing an at-home King-Devick Reading Acceleration Program (K-D RAP) to ASD patients that were undergoing a gross motor development program were evaluated.

Drs. Tara Alvarez and Mitch Schieman pre- sented the latest research in convergence and accommodative therapy and their underlying neurological mechanisms at the 2021 COVD annual meeting. The behavioral model originated by Skeffington as it relates to vergence may seem to be at odds with this type of research, and with the classical model of vision. This perspective aims to inform the synergy between behavioral philosophy and classical analysis of vergence anomalies. Incorporating research into our clinical models and approaches yields further insights that can make significant differences in the lives of our patients.
