Q
Converge light 
Thicker at center thinner at edges 
Shows against motion 
Effective power increases as the vertex distance increases 
Are for what lens ?

17
Q

Applying the concept of corrected curve lens theory, choose the best base curve for the following
-1.00sph
SPH.equiv / 2 + 6.00

A

+5.50

18
Q

Combining cross cylinders

Ex.) -1.25-0.37x180

A

Transpose, make an X, and rewrite the RX in crossed cylinder form
Ex.) -1.25-0.37x180
-1.62+0.37x90
Ans) is -1.25x90 -1.62x180

19
Q

Combining cross cylinders and writing them and plus and minus cylinder
Ex.) +0.25+1.00x90 combine w/
-0.50+1.00x180

A
Transpose so both have same axis 
Combine the spheres and cylinders algebraically keep same axis 
Ex.) +1.25-1.00x180 
         -0.50+1.00x180
\+0.75 SPH
20
Q

In labeling The optical cross for toric transposition the CC Is the strongest back curve the TBC is the weakest back curve and the BC is the base curve on F1 when the lens is minus cylinder design
TRUE OR FALSE?

A

True

21
