Aniseikonia Flashcards
It is a binocular condition, so the image in one eye is perceived as different in size compared to the image in the other eye
Aniseikonia
Aniseikonia is a Greek term which means?
Unequal images
He commented upod the probability of unequal image sizes
Donders
He discussed the possibility
C. Hess
He designed iseikonic lenses for aniseikonia
Von Rohr
Condition in which the size and shape of the ocular images are equal
Iseikonia
Condition which ocular images are unequal in size and shape
Aniseikonia
Lenses which correct aniseikonia and include the correction of refractive error
Iseikonic Lenses
Eyes are gazing in a certain direction; images are different in size
Static Aniseikonia
Optically induced anisophoria; eyes have to rotate a different amount to gaze at the same point in space
Dynamic Aniseikonia
The size of one ocular image is symmetrically larger than the other
Symmetrical Overall
The size of one ocular image is symmetrically larger than the other in one meridian only
Symmetrical Meridional
Combination of overall and meridional is manifested
Symmetrical Compound
Variation in size differ from different positions of the visual field
Assymetrical
Image distortion increases progressively in both directions
Assymetrical Pincushion
