    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology and Vision Science
    • Optometry

    Background:

    • Functional astigmatism is a vision condition influenced by eye movement patterns.
    • Previous research established a link between meridional eye scanning habits and the development of functional astigmatism.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review a novel model of functional astigmatism.
    • To present findings from a clinical study on meridional eye scanning therapy for astigmatism control.

    Main Methods:

    • A review of an existing functional astigmatism model.
    • Prescribing and evaluating a specific eye scanning therapy based on meridional eye movements in a clinical setting.

    Main Results:

    • The clinical study demonstrated a positive correlation between eye scanning therapy and astigmatism management.

  • Therapeutic eye scanning procedures were effective in controlling and reducing functional astigmatism.

    • Conclusions:

    • Meridional eye scanning therapy offers a viable approach for managing and reducing functional astigmatism.
    • The findings support the integration of targeted eye scanning interventions in optometric practice.
