Best\u0000known for his lectures and writing\u0000about “Building A Visual Space World”, he also helped his colleagues and mentees build and refine their own models of vision.

Convergence is impaired because the lesion is in the midbrain. The etiology of WEBINO includes demyelination, stroke, and tumors, but midbrain infarction is the most common.1 Although extraocular muscle surgery and botulinum toxin injections are typically used for management2 of WEBINO, neuro-optometric rehabilitation can be utilized as an effective option to improve vision.\u0000Case Report\u0000A 39-year-old Caucasian male with non-traumatic brain injury due to left intraparenchymal hemorrhage from stroke, presented with WEBINO and multiple vision signs and symptoms, including blurred vision, alternating exotropia, diplopia, and strabismus. During the previous 8 months, he participated in physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy. He had difficulty participating in his therapies due to his vision issues. Single vision distance lenses were prescribed to improve vision clarity and 6 in-office neuro-optometric rehabilitation sessions were administered to improve range of motion of eye movements and to improve vision.\u0000Conclusions\u0000Neuro-optometric rehabilitation utilizes a systematic approach to treating patients with binocular vision dysfunction, while integrating cognitive, motor, and sensory skills. Prognosis is optimized with an individualized approach. Top-down processing stimulates the brain in a more direct way to elicit plasticity-mediated motor relearning.3 In this case, extraocular muscle surgery and botulinum toxin injections were not optimal choices and neuro- optometric rehabilitation was utilized to manage WEBINO and improve quality of life.","PeriodicalId":148913,"journal":{"name":"Vision Development & Rehabilitation","volume":"12 6","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113942431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
