Maddox Rod testing and explanation for practitioners

This video shows how to do the Maddox Rod test and how it relates to other binocular vision tests like convergence and ocular muscle trigger points. Symptoms related to abnormal tension to one or both eyes are eye fatigue, strain, eye pain, dizziness, difficulty with driving and grocery stores.

I like that you mention "trigger points". WAY back when I was in Opt school, that would have been to esoteric for most of my professors to mention. They likely wouldn't have considered as a "science". Figuring it out that points around the eye can be very painful myself, I feel validated!

Thanks for posting this. Very informative. I had this test and wondered what it was about.

Wow!! So excited to have found this video. How does one find a PT that treats CI and occular muscle trigger points?

What is the best kind of doctor to go for this? Opthamologist? Optometrist? Or Neurovisual practices that does Binocular Vision Testing?

My doctor asked me to look at the vertical red line and see if if it crosses the light source. He was adjusting a ruler thing to see if the red line crosses. That line didn't cross at all
