Q

what are all the frame shape alignments and describe them

A
  1. frame shape alignment- general frame shape
  2. proper face form- from the center of the lens out, the curve of the frame should be approx 5%
  3. skewed bridge- both lenses are not the same height. (describe picture)
  4. variant planes (coplanar alignment)- one lens sits closer to the eye than the other (describe picture)
  5. x-ing: the bridge is twisted (describe picture)
  6. check for temple bows and bends!
  7. pantoscopic tilt- the curve of the frame should be 10-15 degrees. (describe picture)
  8. open temple spread (let back angle)- this is the angle the open temples form in relationship to the front of the frame
  9. temple fold angle- temples should be adjusted to form a straight line when in a closed position
  10. Temple bends- the temple mastoid should be 45 degrees down and 15 degrees in.
  11. 4 point touch- should be done upside down first. alll 4 points of a frame should touch the surface evenly.

Q

optyl (plastic)

A

has no core wire on temples. a liquid resin and a hardner are mixed together to create the frame

PROS- very flexible and is appropriate for patients when they’re allergic to other frame materials
CONS- brittle and easy to break

Q

what style fits a square face shape?

35
Q

What are the insets?

A

1.0: less than or equal to 57
1.5: 58-61
2.0: 62-64
2.5: 65-67
3.0: greater than or equal to 68

36
Q

to check for temple parallelism, what do you do?

A

table top test (4 point touch)

37
Q

nose pad alignments (describe pictures for both).

A
  1. horizontal plane alignment- make sure the top of the nose bars are the same. First nose pad adjustment
  2. frontal angle- view from the front of the frame. alignment should be about 20 degrees.
  3. splay angle- should be seen from top view. this angle deals with the sloping of the sides of the nose. bench alignment should be 25-30 degrees
  4. vertical angle- nose pads would be adjusted with a reverse 15 degrees. This would give the notepad the appearance that the bottom of the pad is closer to the eye wire than the top of the pad.
38
Q

describe and name 3 hand tools

A

• nose pad pliers: helps to adjust nose pads.
• angling pliers: used to pantoscopic angle adjustments and temple fold angle.
• round half-paded pliers- can be helpful when decreasing or increasing open temple spread.
