Q

Given lens power in diopters, object distance from lens and location of image. How would you calculate the distance from the image to lens?

A

U + P= V
U = object vergence (always negative)
P = power of lens/mirror
V = vergence of light exiting the lens/mirror to form image

Q

How do you calculate transverse magnification?

A

Transverse magnification (“M”) is given by M = U/V
U is incoming vergence (often from object)
V is output vergence of light leaving lens
“MUV’in out” – M = U/V = i/o “i” is image distance and “o” is object distance from lens of interest.

Q

How do you interpret results of a duochrome test?

A

if red side is better, current refraction is too hyperopic and more minus power must be added. If Green better, too myopic and more plus power added.
“RAM-GAP”
Shorter wavelengths (green) focused more anteriorly. Longer wavelengths (red) focused more posteriorly.

Q

Calculate magnification given lens power, distance of object from lens with virtual image.

A

M = i/o where i is image distance from lens and o is object distance; distances are negative left of lens

or

M = U/V where V = U + P (vergence is reciprocal of distance from lens) U is vergence of object (always negative) and V is vergence of image.
