Optics Flashcards
Relation of hypermetropia to onset of presbyopia?
Hypermetropia hastens onset of presbyopia
Principle of anti-reflective coating on glasses?
Destructive Interference
Which light rays are absorbed by lens?
UV A (315-400nm)
UVB and UVC absorbed by cornea and sclera
Principle of multifocal IOLs?
Diffraction, which is the interference of waves of light as they encounter an obstruction or opening, in order to create multi-focality.
Image formed by Hruby lens?
Hruby lens-Plano concave lens of 58.6D produces a virtual, erect, diminished image anterior to retina within focal length of slit lamp
Direction of distortion of cross during side to side movement of spherical lens?
Concave-with
Convex-against movement of cross
