专业介绍

Program Description

In addition, students will focus on the fundamentals of the nervous system, neuro-anatomy and physiology, and where it relates to the practice of orthoptics. This background knowledge will enable graduate orthoptists to perform as a competent and reflective practitioner and be a valuable member of the eye care team. Throughout the three years, three themes provide the framework for student studies, in all cases linking theoretical knowledge to clinical conditions. The first theme ‘Orthoptic Clinical Practice and Theory’, consists of modules delivering the necessary theory and clinical skills to develop a competent orthoptist, including the physiology of vision, eye movements and binocular vision. The clinical component is delivered in part at the University, but also on clinical placements.

The University of Liverpool Orthoptic programme will equip graduates with the skills to diagnose and manage conditions which may present in a range of patients from infants to the elderly, eg strabismus (eye misalignments), amblyopia (sometimes called lazy eye), traumatic injuries, tumours, head injuries, diabetes and strokes.
