Which is NOT part of Binocular Vision Disorder testing?

• A. Mac OCT
• B. Near and Distance CT
• C. Von Graph Phorias
• D. MEM

Answer: (A)

In binocular vision testing, you assess how the eyes work together in terms of alignment, vergence control, and accommodation. Macular OCT, however, is an imaging test that examines retinal structure and thickness, not how the eyes align or focus together. It provides information about the retina and macula for glaucoma, macular disease, or other retinal conditions, but it doesn’t evaluate binocular function. The other tests directly measure aspects of binocularity: cover tests at near and distance check eye alignment and strabismus, the Von Graefe phoria test quantifies how the eyes maintain alignment when dissociated, and MEM retinoscopy assesses accommodative accuracy and lag, which are integral to how the eyes coordinate focusing with vergence. Because Mac OCT lacks a Binocular Vision Disorder testing component, it is not considered part of BV testing.
