Q

How BIO works

A

Retina is the object –> Light leaves and focuses into an image between the patient and doctor. The new image becomes the object for the doctor’s eye, which is focused on the doctor’s retina.

Condensing lens forms an intermediate, inverted, real image.

Q

What 2 images do you see in the radiuscope

A

The first image is from the surface of the lens. Now set it at zero.

The second image is the center of curvature for the GP lens.

Take the difference between the 2 positions of focus to find the radius of curvature.

Q

How does a keratometer work

39
Q

Difference between image jump and total prismatic effect

A

Image jump- just multiply the add x distance from seg to near OC in cm.

Total prismatic effect- Sum of the prism induced from looking away from the distance and seg OC. 1 eye.
First determine prism induced when looking away from the distance OC.

Then determine prism induced when looking away from seg OC.

A

1%

3.00D/3% usually becomes a problem

54
Q

Define:
Anisokonia
Anisometropia

A

Anisokonia- Difference in size or shape of the images seen by the left and right eyes.
Anisometropia- Refractive state of the left eye differs from the right eye, usually by 1.00D

55
Q

Who is more likely to develop amblyopia?

Hyperopic anisometrope or myopic anisometrope?

A

Hyperopic anisometrope because accommodation occurs equally in both eyes. Pt will be using the least hyperopic eye all the time at distance and near.

A myopic anisometrope could use the less myopic eye at distance and the more myopic eye at near.

56
Q

When light falls upon a lens, how can it be lost?

A

Reflected by the front or back surfaces

Absorption by the material

57
Q

Formula for reflectance

A

Reflectance = ( (n2-n1) / (n2+n1) ) ^2

This tells you how much light was reflected off the front surface. Can assume it was the same for the back surface as long as both sides are surrounded by air.

To determine transmittance, subtract this value from 1

T= 1-Reflectance

58
Q

How to calculate total transmission through a lens

A

Multiple Transmission of the front surface x back surface x T through medium

(They would have to give you the amount absorbed by the material. 1-absorption= transmission through material)

59
Q

Formula to calculate Power of the lens needed in the direct ophthalmoscope based on patient rx and Dr Rx

A

Power of lens in direct = patient Rx + Doctor Rx
