Exophoria Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect of Occipito-atlas-axis Manipulation on Oculomotricity in Individuals With Exophories
Objetive: to assess the efficacy of the occipito-atlas-axis cervical manipulation technique to correct ocular divergence in subjects with exophoria. Design: quantitative, experimental, longitudinal and prospective study. Subjects: subjects over 18 years of age, with exophorias, without heterotropies and who do not present a contraindication to cervical manipulation. Methods:Subjects with this ocular mobility dysfunction are going to be evaluated objectively with the Alternate Cover Test. The ocular deviation will be measured at 40 cm and at 4 meters. The individuals who were part of the experimental group underwent the OAA manipulation technique, and to those who were part of the control group a placebo maneuver. Two measurements were taken from this moment, one immediately after the execution of the technique and another one week later.
