EYE
Chart used to assess visual acuity
Snellen Chart
condition that is a common cause of conductive hearing loss
Otosclerosis
Changes in distant vision (nearsightedness)
Myopia
2nd Leading cause of blindness worldwide
Glaucoma
Neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairment in social and communication skills
Autism Spectrum Disorder
True or False: retinal detachment will heal with time, no treatment necessary.
False- considered medical emergency
Abnormality in inner ear fluid balance
Meniere’s Disease
“Crossed eyes”; Usually caused by poor eye muscle control or farsightedness
Strabismus
Opacification (clouding) of the lens
Cataracts
Disorder characterized by inattention, hyperactivity and impulsiveness that is more persistent and prominent as compared to children of the same age
ADHD
5 unique symptoms associated with chronic open angle glaucoma
halos around lights
night vision problems
increased intraocular pressure
decreased visual acuity
gradual onset
Perception of sound or noise in ears without environmental stimulus; “ringing”

Abnormal curvature of the cornea
Astigmatism
Post-op education for cataract surgery- list at least 3
eye patch for about 24 hrs, glasses/sunglasses for protection
No driving for at least 24 hours
No heavy lifting, no bending over, no strenuous exercise for 2 weeks = increase eye pressure
dont' wear make-up
do not rub eye
Types of hearing loss (3)
Sensorineural, Mixed, Conductive
ocular symptom associated with age-related macular degeneration
Loss of central vision
Rinne test results for client with otosclerosis
bone conduction =/> air conduction
Changes in near vision (farsightedness)
Presbyopia
Inflammation of the eyelids causing red, irritated, itchy eyelids and the formation of dandruff-like scales on eyelashes
Blepharitis
Most common type of hearing loss
Sensorineural Hearing Loss
Cranial nerve responsible for pupil size and reactivity; EOM
Cranial Nerve III- Oculomotor
Surgical procedure used in the treatment of recurrent otitis media, especially in children
Most common cause of vision loss in children
Amblyopia
Complete or partial obstruction of outflow of aqueous humor; Rapid progression of vision impairment
Acute Angle Closure Glaucoma
A Goal of ADHD treatment
– increase attention, decrease hyperactivity and impulsiveness, improve relationships
