This activity will focus on the evaluation and management of oculomotor symptoms associated with acquired brain injuries (ABI) due to concussion, stroke and other causes. It will discuss the battery of tests that can establish the presence of oculomotor dysfunction and will cover available treatment options, including glasses, prism glasses, therapeutic eye drops and vision therapy. The importance of a team management approach through collaboration and referrals will be stressed. After this activity, eye doctors should be comfortable evaluating patients with a history of concussion or ABI.
