What is binocular single vision?
What is binocular single vision?
- The state of vision achieved by using one eye for distance and the other for close-up
- The state of simultaneous vision achieved by the coordinated use of both eyes (correct)
- The state of vision achieved by closing one eye
- The state of vision in one eye only
How is binocular single vision classified as 'normal'?
How is binocular single vision classified as 'normal'?
- When the images are projected from the fovea of one eye and an extrafoveal area of the other eye
- When there is a manifest deviation in one eye
- When it is bifoveal and there is no manifest deviation (correct)
- When there is a small manifest strabismus present
What is anomalous binocular single vision?
What is anomalous binocular single vision?
- When the images of the fixated object are projected from the fovea of one eye and an extrafoveal area of the other eye (correct)
- When there is no manifest deviation in vision
- When there is no blending of sight from the two eyes
- When there is a small manifest strabismus present

Study Notes
Binocular Single Vision
- Binocular single vision is the ability to perceive a single, three-dimensional image from the two separate images formed by each eye.
- It is a result of the brain's ability to fuse the images from each eye, creating a unified perception of the visual world.
Classification of Binocular Single Vision
- Binocular single vision is classified as 'normal' when the brain is able to fuse the images from each eye correctly, resulting in a single, clear image.
Anomalous Binocular Single Vision
- Anomalous binocular single vision occurs when the brain's ability to fuse images is impaired, resulting in an abnormal single image.
- It is characterized by a deviation in the normal alignment of the eyes, leading to abnormal visual processing.
Implications of Binocular Vision
- Binocular vision implies the ability to perceive depth and distance, allowing for accurate judgement of spatial relationships.
Manifest Deviation in Anomalous Binocular Single Vision
- A manifest deviation is present in anomalous binocular single vision when the deviation in eye alignment is significant enough to cause noticeable visual disturbances.
- This deviation can be detected through visual assessments and can have implications for daily life and visual function.
