Confrontation Pupillary reaction Accomodation Snellen E chart Question 3 2 / 2 pts University of Texas, Tyler NURS 5352 Advanced health assessment test 1 with complete solution EYE: The confrontation test measures peripheral vision. The examiner sits or stands across from the patient and asks the patient to close one eye while the examiner closes the opposite eye. The examiner then proceeds to wave the fingers while moving the extended arms from a lateral to a central position along both the temporal and the nasal fields. The pupillary reaction test is done by observing the pupil’s response to light. The accommodation test deals with pupil reaction to light, whereas the Snellen chart measures visual acuity. The swinging flashlight test evaluates the health of the optic nerve by looking for an afferent pupillary defect.
