Summary
Convergence insufficiency (CI) is a prevalent binocular vision disorder that leads to symptoms such as eye strain, headaches, and blurred vision during near work. This study aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of pencil pushup exercises versus base-out exercising prisms in the management of CI. A Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) will be conducted with 28 participants, using non-probability convenience sampling from SIGHTON Optix, Lahore. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the experimental group (receiving base-out exercising prisms) or the control group (receiving pencil push up exercises). The study will assess symptom improvement using the Convergence Insufficiency Symptom Survey (CISS), near point of convergence (NPC).
