Diplopia is described as being intractable when there is inability to both fuse the two images and suppress the second image. Intractable diplopia persists despite achieving ocular alignment using either prisms, lenses,vision therapy,extraocular muscle surgery, or botulinum toxin injection. Treatment usually resorts to occluding or fogging the patient’s nondominant eye. Often times, however, adults having other causative mechanisms for supposedly persistent diplopia are able to achieve comfortable single vision with treatment that either establishes fusion or reactivates a preexisting sensory adaptation. This case series reviews these other causes of diplopia.

1. Adaptation of tactile receptors in the skin of the frog to excitation by an intermittent jet of air is measured and correlated with certain properties of a series of notched discs used to interrupt the air stream. 2. Adaptation in fifteen cases is found to be described by either one of two empirical formulas, or t = -k log f + C, for nine preparations t = a f-b, for six preparations where f is the per cent frequency at time t and -k and -b are constants defining the rate of adaptation.

A comparatively simple apparatus allows even beginning students to observe action potentials in the cockroach leg. The recordings are made extracellularly by impaling the leg on two insect pins. Deflection of large spines on the leg, which are each innervated by one sensory neuron, initiates the action potentials. Using this technique, students observe the all-or-nothing nature of action potentials, their coding of information by frequency, and sensory adaptation.
