Question 1 of 5
A nurse is performing a focused assessment for a client's vision. What visual assessment is the nurse making when she extends her hand for the client to shake?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Depth perception is the ability to judge the distance and position of objects in three-dimensional space. Depth perception is assessed by asking the client to touch the tip of a pen or pencil held by the nurse, or by using a stereopsis test. Peripheral vision is the ability to see objects and movements outside the direct line of vision. Peripheral vision is assessed by asking the client to shake the hand of the nurse, who stands at an angle to the client's side, or by using a confrontation test. Color deficit is the inability to distinguish certain colors or shades of colors. Color deficit is assessed by asking the client to identify numbers or shapes on a color plate test, such as the Ishihara test. Double vision is the perception of two images of a single object. Double vision is assessed by asking the client to cover one eye and look at an object, then switch eyes and compare the images, or by using a cover-uncover test.
