Product Information

Prior to starting therapy, the NPC ( P = 0.610), near heterophoria ( P = 0.821), and PFV ( P = 0.580) were not statistically different between groups. After 4 and 8 weeks, only PFV was statistically significantly different between groups ( P = 0.001). After 4 and 8 weeks, NPC was not statistically different between groups ( P = 0.805). There was no statistical difference between groups in near heterophoria after 4 and 8 weeks ( P = 0.701). Why, then, do pencil push-ups remain so popular among the eye care providers as a treatment option? The likely reasons include the simplicity, accessibility, and affordability of this treatment. With CI, the most common of the Duane-White accommodative-vergence syndromes, it is likely that the capacity of patients with this condition exceeds the number of vision therapy practitioners in many parts of the world.

The results of this study indicated that there was a statistically significant decrease in symptoms in both groups, but there was no significant difference between the efficacy of PPT versus office-based therapy for the treatment of CI. However, changes in NPC and near heterophoria in the office-based therapy group were somewhat greater than the home-based therapy group. By comparison, home-based therapy showed significantly lower improvement in positive fusional vergence. The inclusion criteria were, a survey score 21 or greater using the convergence insufficiency symptom survey (CISS) questionnaire 14[see Appendix A], near exo-deviation which was at least 4 prism diopters more than distance, remote NPC (6 cm or more), insufficient near PFV (not meeting Sheard's criterion, 4 or break point less than 15 prism diopters), the best corrected monocular VA of 20/25 or better at far and near. What should you do and how to do it? Apply the gel liner along the lash line from the inner to outer corners of the eye.

Keep your dominant hand in place by holding the scissors between your fingers and running the blade of the scissors down the eyeliner pencil, but don’t wrap your hand around the blades.Another study by Scheiman et al 16 on children 9-18 years old reported lower efficacy of PPT at home compared with office therapy, which is in contradiction with the results of present study. The mean changes in PFV and NPC before and at the end of the treatment phase in Scheiman et al. 16 study concurs with our study. The amount of near phoria was not investigated as a parameter is Scheiman et al 16 study before and after treatment, whereas we investigated this parameter and observed that there was no significant difference in the two groups. Of note, with true CI, the observed difference in amount of phoria before and after the treatment can attributed to the vergence after-effect, as the amount of deviation will not change with therapy if prolonged occlusion is used. This may not be the case in pseudo-CI, which is really accommodative insufficiency with a false apparent high exophoria. https://www.aaopt.org/detail/knowledge-base-article/effectiveness-pencil-pushups-treatment-convergence-insufficiency The following are some pointers on how to sharpen eyeliner without using a sharpening tool. The correct sharpener is determined by the brand or size of the eyeliner pencil. If you use a sharpener too large or small, it can break and make sharpening more difficult. Sharpening eyeliners with the appropriate size eyeliner sharpener is the most effective method. If you have a brand-new pencil sharpener that you haven’t used for pencils, it could be a good solution for this task. Cleaning the inside of the sharpener after each use can also help prevent breakage. StyleCheer offers tips on how to apply eyeliner without damaging or smearing your eyeshadow. The Effectiveness of Home-based Pencil Push-up Therapy Versus Office-based Therapy for the Treatment of Symptomatic Convergence Insufficiency in Young Adults: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4302485/ If you have been prescribed PPT by a Developmental Optometrist as part of an overall comprehensive Vision Therapy program, then, yes you should use your pencil pushups. From the information above you can tell that, pencil pushups alone are no better than placebo in studies. This makes them not as effective as a stand alone treatment when compared to an overall comprehensive vision therapy program. How often you should use PPT is usually directed by your doctor, but, to make a change in your vision, it is important to use this (and other protocols) at least 5x/week.

Although the Eyeliner appears to be plastic, its cosmetic sharpener, such as our Dual Sharpener, can be used to sharpen it. Turn the pencil gently three or four times with the sharpener to achieve the best results, not to apply too much pressure. After sharpening, it is recommended that you remove all shavings from the edge of the blade. How Do You Use Maybelline Gel Pencil Liner? Scheiman M, Mitchell GL, Cotter SA, et al. Convergence Insufficiency Treatment Trial - Attention and Reading Trial (CITT-ART): Design and Methods. Vis Dev Rehabil. 2015;1(3):214-228. In this semi-experimental study, participants were 60 students from Zahedan University of Medical Sciences (mean age of 21.3 ± 0.9 years). The nature, purpose, and methods of this study were clearly explained to the participants in advance, and their voluntary cooperation and informed consent was obtained from all participants. This study adhered to the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki and the participants were assured that their information was kept confidential. The Research Ethics Committee at Zahedan University of Medical Sciences approved the study (Code: 752). In CI, patient's complaints are frequently associated with reading or near work. The common symptoms are eyestrain and headache after short periods of reading, blurred vision, diplopia, sleepiness, difficulty in concentrating, loss of comprehension over time, a pulling sensation in eyes, and movement of letters while studying or reading. 5 Yet some patients with CI do not report any problems. 4 This absence of complaints may be due to suppression, avoidance of near visual tasks, high discomfort threshold, or occlusion of one eye during reading. 4 Brautaset et al. 17 showed the efficacy of PFV therapy for the reduction of asthenopia in patients with CI, which concurs with the result of present study. Arnoldi et al. 7 investigated the efficacy of PPT and reported that the NPC after the treatment in 98.9% of patients was less than 10 cm, in 95.7% less than 8.5 cm and in 80.4% less than 6.5 cm. Their results were similar to our study in that the mean NPC decreased from 13.0 cm to 8.5 cm in the PPT group.Ostrow GI, Del Monte MA, Al-Hashimi MR. Convergence Insufficiency.
