NBEO Part II - Clinical Review -- From: NBEO application booklet.

"Refractive/oculomotor/sensory integrative conditions" applies the knowledge of Basic Science to the diagnosis, treatment and management of those refractive, oculomotor and/or sensory integrative conditions that can present to the optometrist by patients seeking primary eye care. It is composed of 9 major subdivision, the first 8 having a common 3-part format (epidemiology, history and symptoms: observation and recognition of clinical signs, and techniques and skill required; diagnosis, treatment and management, and prognosis) with the final subdivison dealing with the use of refractive correction applications to manage the conditions in this section.

1. Anomalies of Refraction: Ametropia (21-27 items)
   1. Epidemiology, history and symptom inventory.
   2. Observation and recognition of clinical signs, and techniques and skills including determination of:
      1. Interpupillary distance
      2. Visual acuity
      3. Corneal curvature and thickness
      4. Objective static and dynamic refractive status, including automatic refractive devices.
      5. Standard subjective refraction procedures (see also) , including astigmatic dials, crossed cylinders, stenopaic slit, fogging methods, bichrome, and accommodation balance (equalization) techniques
      6. Binocular subjective refraction procedures, including Turville Infinity balance and vectographic (Polaroid) techniques
      7. Cycloplegic subjective and objective techniques
      8. Automatic computer assisted subjective procedures, laser refraction and variation in procedures for the various ametropias
   3. Diagnosis, treatment and management using spectacle and contact lenses (see also (9) below), and prognosis.
