Summary

The aim of this research is to compare the effect of Oculomotor Exercises and Muscle energy technique on visual fatigue, proprioception, Craniovertebral angle among patients having Forward head posture.. It will raise awareness about the link between posture and visual health, encouraging early identification of visual symptoms associated with FHP, enhance recovery outcomes, improve functional performance, and promote a holistic treatment approach, ultimately provide benefit to population.

Conditions

  • Forward Head Posture
  • Visual Fatigue

Interventions

OTHER

Oculomotor Exercise along with conventional Therapy

Oculomotor Exercises: Saccadic eye movement, Smooth pursuit, Adaptation X1, Adaptation X2. Time duration will be 2 minutes for each exercise. conventional therapy: hot pack 20 mins Kendall exercises: Strengthening the deep cervical flexor, Stretching the cervical extensors, Strengthening shoulder retraction, Stretching of the pectoralis major muscle strengthening exercise: 12 repetitions\* 3 sets, 2-8 sec hold stretching exercise was: 3 reps\* 30 seconds' hold Total duration of treatment would be 4 weeks, 3 days a week with total 12 sessions.

OTHER

sub-occipital muscle energy technique along with Conventional Therapy

Sub-occipital muscle energy technique (PIR) 3 rep \* 1 set with 20 sec hold conventional therapy: hot pack 20 mins Kendall exercises: Strengthening the deep cervical flexor, Stretching the cervical extensors, Strengthening shoulder retraction, Stretching of the pectoralis major muscle strengthening exercise: 12 repetitions\* 3 sets, 2-8 sec hold stretching exercise was: 3 reps\* 30 seconds' hold Total duration of treatment would be 4 weeks, 3 days a week with total 12 sessions.
