OPT2376L Refractometry Lab II Unit 1 Flashcards
When measuring Add powers, the lights should be very dim in the room.
False
E.O.M. stands for:
Extra Ocular Motility
You show a patient the 20/20 acuity line at 20 feet: T V Z E C L and the patient reads: T
U W B C L. How do you record his acuity?
20/20 -3
On the cover/uncover test, you cover the right eye and see no movement. Then you
cover the left eye and observe an inward (nasal) movement of the right eye. The patient
has a:
right exotropia ( what is the eye doing the other one is cover. Not when both eyes are not covered)
If, when using the +/- 0.50-crossed cyl and crossed hair target (horizontal and vertical
lines), the patient says that the “Horizontal lines are clearer” you should:
Add Plus Sphere for add power
T/F: Donder’s Table of Amplitude of Accommodation indicates the amount of usable,
comfortable accommodation that we use for near vision.
False
If, when using the +/- 0.50 crossed cyl and crossed hair target (horizontal and vertical
lines), if the patient says that the “Vertical lines are clearer” you should:
Do nothing: no add power is needed
A screening test for visual field is called:
Amsler grid and Confrontations (poor mans visual test Finger test)
If, when using the +/- 0.50 crossed cyl and crossed hair target (horizontal and vertical
lines), the patient says that the “lines are equally clear” you should:
Do nothing: no add power is needed
T/F: The first test to be performed when a patient comes in for an office visit is to
measure and record their visual acuity.
