The correct answer is orthoptics.
Orthoptics is a profession of eye care that do things such as diagnosis and non-surgical management of strabismus (wandering eye), amblyopia (lazy eye) and eye movement disorders. Orthoptists are trained professionals who are uniquely skilled in diagnostic techniques.
