Question

binocular balancing is not to be performed if patient is having strabismus.
A).True
B).False​

Answer 1

Answer:

The binocular balance test occurs after a monocular subjective refraction to ensure that accomodation is balanced in the two eyes. There is no need to perform this test if the patient is monocular, or if they have no accomodation (i.e. patients over the age of 60 or pseudophakics).
