Q
  • relaxation and reduction of accommodation below the normal demand for given binocular fixation distance.
  • to determine the amount of accommodation that can be relaxed without change in convergence
  • changes in accommodation that can be elicited when convergence is held constant.
  • finding the reserve or range of accommodation

Q

Measure the strength of SE and IR muscle (strength of the muscle is greater than the amount of prism reflected on the phoropter head. The strength of the muscle is not the break value).
