A case report demonstrates how altering visual-postural control may improve outcomes in strabismus.
Visually guided, spatially oriented behavior involves an ongoing integration of signals regarding the loci of the retinal images and the position and orientation of the eye. In the strabismic this requires an altered spatial metric resulting from a functional readaptation to avoid confusion and diplopia. A comparator mechanism for evaluating these two signals is presented. A case report using “disruptive” therapeutic procedures that deliberately alter the strabismic's visual‐postural control system is presented. A treatment plan for altering the anomalous binocular link, a characteristic of the well adapted strabismic, is described and related to the comparator mechanism
