Doubts on Micro Skills

[balaji kr]

Friends,

 

If I understood correctly in the contact classes, the micro skills suggest that we need to maintain eye-to-eye contact (although not staring) when counseling.

 

My questions are:

 

1.  Which eye/direction do we look at to establish eye-to-eye contact with a client having strabismus (squint eyed) or convergence (inward movement of both eyes towards each other) ?

 

2.  Which eye/direction do we look to establish eye-to-eye contact with a client who might have diplopia (double vision) ?

 

Can anybody clarify this please ?

 

Regards,

Balaji, sorry to answer your query so late. Actually eye contact means, to look in vicinity of eyes, forehead in total. 

so even if a person has squint eye or double vision, looking softly in that vicinity should work.

I hope i was able to help you in some way.
