Q

Principles of direct ophthalmoscope

A

o Lenses which focus light form a bulb onto a mirror  real image formed (just below corneal reflection so it does not lie over the visual axis)
o Mirror reflects light in a diverging beam to illuminate the patients eye
o Light reflected back by the retina into observers eyeF

Q

Field of view

A

o Governed by hole in mirror or the observer’s pupil
o Large when dilated (obviously)
o Becomes larger as the distance between patient and observer DECREASES

Q

indirect ophthalmoscope

A
  • Used with powerful CONVEX lens – must be aspheric to minimise aberrations
  • Condensing lens held at arms length, image viewed at 40-50cm distance
  • Binocular indirect has +2.0D in prismatic eye piece-viewer does not need to accommodate

Q

linear magnification example 13D at 15mm

A

o if the distance is 15mm, the linear magnification is the focal length x15 mm
o For a 13D (f = 75mm) = x5 linear magnification (75/15=5)

Q

3 stages of retinoscopy

A

o Illumination stage: light directed into the patients eye to illuminate the retina
o Reflex stage: image of the illuminated retina is formed at the patient’s far point
o Projection stage: noting the behaviour of the luminous reflex by the observer in the patients pupil

24
Q

illumination stage

A

Light is reflected onto the patients fundus using a plane or concave lens
Plane = with movement
Concave = against movement

25
Q

reflex stage

A

An image of the illuminated retina is formed at the patient’s far point

26
Q

projection stage

A

Observers views the image of the illuminated retina as a reflex in the patients pupil at a convenient distance
Point of reversal or neutral point of retinoscopy is reached when the patients far point coincides with the observers nodal point  no movement is observed

27
Q

Placido’s disc

A
  • Used to check the general shape of the cornea
  • Examiner looks through the disc with a convex lens  can see the regularity or distortion of the cornea
  • Shorter the radius of curvature  steeper meridian  smaller the reflected image
28
Q

keratometer

A
  • Measure the radius of curvature of a central zone of the cornea approximately 3 to 4mm in diameter
  • Radius of curvature of the axial zone of the emmetropic eye is 7.8mm
29
Q

what is constant in all keratometers

A

u (distance of object from mirror) is fixed in all

30
Q

what moves in keratometers

A

o Von Helmholtz: fixed = object, adjusted = image size
o Javal Schiotz: fixed = image, adjusted = object size

31
Q

A

o Corneal astigmatism
o Contact lens fitting
o Refractive surgery
