LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Describe how to perform dynamic retinoscopy and the clinical uses of this skill
- List ways that photographs and videos enhance diagnosis and management of strabismus, list ways to improve the quality of images and understand the advantages of using surgeon’s point of view video of strabismus surgery for education
- Review the theoretical foundations of perimetry, the rationale for choosing specific perimetry techniques and strategies in various clinical situations
- Discuss the pathophysiology of esotropias with near-distance disparity, the considerations that should be taken into account during their assessment and the treatment options, both surgical and non-surgical

1510 | Everything you wanted to know about visual field testing · Michael Richards
Visual field testing, or perimetry, measures visual function outside the fovea. It is an essential tool in the diagnosis and management of many retinal, optic nerve, and neurological diseases. This workshop will cover the essentials of visual field testing by confrontation, manual kinetic perimetry, and automated static perimetry. At the end of this session, participants will be able to:

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Discuss recent findings derived from clinical research regarding amblyopia and amblyopia-related deficits
- Review inherited eye conditions and understand when electroretinogram (ERG) testing is warranted and be better able to interpret results
- Incorporate knowledge gained from complex pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus case studies into daily clinical practice including how to appropriately determine prism power required in those with diplopia
- Discuss interesting case findings as presented and apply to clinical practice
- Recognize auricular anomalies in patients presenting with oculomotor abnormalities
