EYE MOBILITY

Assess each eye independently from the fellow eye, occluding the eye not being assessed. From a distance of approximately 12 inches, move a stimulus above, below, temporally, and nasally, past the nose opposite the eye being assessed. Allow the student time to adjust to the occlusion prior to recording responses.

IndicatesCheck Mark each behavior that characterizes current visual function in the appropriate column (OU = both; OD = right; OS = left). Indicate emerging or inconsistent responses with an E (emerging) but also indicate that the skill is not (No) considered mastered within the student's repertoire. Behaviors prior to the student's level of functioning are considered integrated. If the behavior is clearly not within the student's repertoire, indicate Check Mark the No column.

PURSUIT

IndicatesCheck Mark each behavior that characterizes current visual function in the appropriate column (OU = both; OD = right; OS = left). Indicate emerging or inconsistent responses with an E (emerging) but also indicate that the skill is not (No) considered mastered within the student's repertoire. Behaviors prior to the student's level of functioning are considered integrated. If the behavior is clearly not within the student's repertoire, indicate Check Mark the No column.

On the relevant diagram(s), mark(X) the position(s) in which pursuit was lost or an eye(s) moved out of alignment. Qualify the Mark(X) by description and direction of movement. Initiate pursuit from both the left and the right several consecutive cycles.
