Accommodative Amps

Question 1

accommodation physical response (c.b, lens zonules, etc)

Answer 1

contraction of cilliary body, relax lens zonules, bulging lens, increased refractive power

Question 2

stimuli that cause accommodation

Answer 2

blur, proximity, minus lens

Question 3

range of accommodation

Answer 3

the difference in diopters between the far point and the near point of the eye

Question 4

accommodative amplitude

Answer 4

maximum accommodative ability

Question 5

minimum expected amplitude of accommodation

Answer 5

mimimum expected = 15 - (1/4)(age)

Question 6

average expected value of amplitude of accommodation

Answer 6

18.5 - (1/3)(age)

Question 7

minus lens amps - accomodative amplitude findings

Answer 7

[habitual - final lens] + 2.50

Question 8

accommodative insufficiency

Answer 8

low accommodative amps

Question 9

accommodatve excess

Answer 9

normal accommodative amps

Question 10

do push-up amps over- or under-estimate?

Answer 10

overestimate; relative distance magnification

Question 11

do minus lens amps over- or under-estimate?

Answer 11

underestimate; minification of target
