Occupational therapists use partial and complete occlusion to minimize binocular diplopia, however a review of the literature reflected a lack of standardized protocol for each intervention technique. The purpose of this study was to examine occupational therapists\u2019 perspectives on the use of partial and complete occlusion and the clinical reasoning process used.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An electronic survey was distributed to occupational therapists working in a variety of practice settings.
