Q

Lenticular/internal astigmatism is created by a surface other than the anterior surface of the cornea.

t/f

A

true

20
Q

Total/refractive astigmatism found in the spectacles rx.

t/f

A

true

21
Q

Residual astigmatism is wha remains after a contact lens is fit to the cornea.

t/f

A

true

22
Q

Calc. residual astig.

A
  1. Determine the amount and type of astig.
  2. with the rx in (-) cyl, determine amount and type of refractive astig.
  3. If they’re the same, subtract. If they’re opposite, add.
23
Q

If we find more than 1.00D of residual astigmatism, the pt will usually require a front surface toric lens.

t/f

A

true

24
Q

If the flattest and steepest meridians differ by more than 3.00D, the pt will usually require a back surface or bitoric design.

t/f

A

true

25
Q

Peripheral limbal staining at 3:00 and 9:00 is a result of exposure causing limbal dryness.

t/f

A

true

26
Q

t/f

A

true

27
Q

The subjective symptom of edge flare or reflection with a contact lens is aggravated by tearing.

t/f

A

true

28
Q

A stinging and burning sensation which occurs each day after several hours of wear may be caused by a contact lens which has a stagnation of fluid build up behind the lens.
