Q

What is the refractory error in pathologic myopia?

A

> 8.0D

17
Q

What Refractory Error is an Ametropic condition when the refracting power of the eye is insufficent to bring the focused image of an object held at infinity onto the retina: the image lies posterior to the retina (normal retina, weak power).

A

Hyperopia (farsightedness)

18
Q

T/F: Hyperopia is normal in infants

A

True

19
Q

Who relies on accommodation to focus on near?

A

Emmotropes

20
Q

What is the refractive error that the far point is at infinity and the focal point is at the retina?

A

Emmetropia

21
Q

What is the refractive error that the far point is the front of the eye and the focal point is in the vitreous?

A

Myopia (nearsightedness)

22
Q

What is the refractive error that focal point is behind the eye?

A

Hyperopia (farsightedness)

23
Q

What kind of Hyperopia is it when the length of eye is TOO SHORT for refractive power of eye?

A

Axial Hyperopia

24
Q

What kind of Hyperopia is it when the refractive power of eye is TOO WEAK for eye of normal length?

A

Refractive Hyperopia

25
Q

What kind of Myopia is it when the length of the eye is TOO LONG for normal refraction?

A

Axial Myopia

26
Q

What kind of Myopia is it when the refractive power of eye is TOO STRONG for eye of normal length?

A

Refractive Myopia
