Evaluation and Management of Monocular Diplopia (Abstract)
Virginia C. Hansen, C.O.
Monocular diplopia is the double vision that occurs in only one eye and is time consuming to diagnose and treat. The patient is understandably cranky and persistent. But the most common misconception is wrong: they're not crazy!
A literature search revealed something painfully clear. There is scant literature on the subject.
This discussion will cover the different types, how to detect it, and how to get rid of it. Realize that sometimes the detection is the treatment so some aspects of monocular diplopia will be simultaneously reviewed.
