Q

How is TBUT performed?

A

Fluorescein is instilled and they eye is observed through the slit lamp, ask pt to close their eyes then open. When they open their eyes start timer and watch eye for tear film break up. When dry spots first appear, stop timer- this is their tear break up time. The shorter the TBUT the dryer the eye.

36
Q

Color vision test that is more precise than pseudoisochromatic plates, has 15 pastel colored chips, similar brightness, subtly different hues, patient arranges in color sequence and must use calibrated lighting for testing

Q

How do you perform Farnsworth-Munsell test?

Remove all the chips aside from the starter chip that is glued inside and pt arranges chips in order of hue starting with the color part.

Because oils from your fingers can dull the colors

routine

47
Q

A trade off between image size and field of view.

A

Magnification

48
Q

Larger images take up ____space

A

more

49
Q

Magnification devices limit the field of view because of——

A

the apperature, the viewing window, the lens, or the video display

50
Q

What are the 3 main types of magnification?

A

Linear, Distance, angular

51
Q

Magnification that increases object size (ex: large print, large screen display, computer text)

A

Linear magnification

52
Q

Magnification by moving the object closer (10x mag=reducing viewing distance by 90%, easier for kids than presbyopes)

A

Distance Magnification

53
Q

Magnification achieved with optical instrument such as telescopes, telemicroscopes(Image size enlarged without changing viewing distance or modifying object)

A

Angular magnification

54
Q

The higher the magnification the more ________

A

the objects motion is magnified

55
Q

The most common type of telescopic magnification is…

A

the Galilean

56
Q

Telescopic magnification that uses a + lens of one power and a - lens of a greater power.

A

Galilean

57
Q

When would we use Galilean telescopic magnification.

A

When the doctor uses a high minus CL with a plus power spectacle lens on top of it. This essentially creates a Gallilean telescope.

58
Q

Telescope that has a weak + objective and strong + eyepiece

A

Astronomic

59
Q

Image that is formed in an astronomic telescope is ___ so erecting lenses or prisms must br used to turn image upright

A

inverted

60
Q

With the astronomic telescope the lenses are separated by the sum of their _____

A

focal lengths

61
Q

What are the different types of low vision magnifiers?

A

Head borne, handheld, stand supported, electronic

62
Q

What should you take into consideration when recommending low vision aid?

A

pts physical condition

63
Q

rule used to estimate the amount of mag that a low vision pt needs to read newsprint

A

Kestenbaum’s rule

64
Q

How do you calculate magnification using Kestenbaum’s rule?

A

Divide VA denominator by numerator
(ex: 20/200 VA =10x mag

65
Q

Low vision magnifier that are spectacle or loupes

A

head-borne

66
Q

low vision magnifiers held in hand

A

hand held

67
Q

low vision magnifiers that are with or without self contained illumination

A

stand supported

68
Q

What are some instruments that evaluate AC depth>

A

OCT, Ascan Biometry (optical, contact, immersion), B scan, slit scanning, gonioscopy (physician performs), slit lamp (estimate), penlight (estimate)

69
Q

How do you measure AC depth with a pen light?

A

hold the pen light perpendicular to the pts AC just temporal to the canthus, aim light so it illuminates the entire AC from the side. If deep the iris will be flat and iris will be illuminated with light, if shallow, temporal aspect of AC will illuminate but the nasal aspect will be in shadow.

70
Q

Explain how to use slit lamp to check AC

A

Have light beems narrow and in very sharp focus with a very bright light. Aim light so one part of beam is on the iris and the other is shining onto their K. Make sure you check nasal, temporal, and centrally. If there is space between the lights then they have space in AC. the more space the deeper AC is . If very close or touching they have narrow AC

71
Q

Test that measures the forward protrusion of eye

A

exophthalmometry

72
Q

Forward protrusion of the eye is known as

A

proptosis

73
Q

What causes proptosis?

A

thyroid eye disease and orbital tumors

74
Q

A difference in protrusion of the 2 eyes of 2mm or more is considered—-

A

abnormal

75
Q

What are the 2 types of exophthalmometers?

A

Hertel and Luedde

76
Q

The ophthalmometer that the examiner sits infront of the pt and measures both eyes at the same time. It is a horizontal calibrated bar with removable carriers at each side. There are mirrors on the side that reflect the pts eye and there are mm markings on it. There is a base measurement that stays constant for each measurement on that particular pt, this corresponds to the distance between the 2 eyes.

A

Hertel

77
Q

With this ophthalmometer the examiner sits beside pt with pt looking forward, it is a transparent ruler calibrated in mm, one end of it is notched to fit in the bony orbit, is performed one eye at a time.

A

Luedde

78
Q

Measures high order aberrations

A

Wavefront diagnostics

79
Q

optical distortions in the eye that are not correctable by sphere and cylinder lenses

A

high order abberations

80
Q

The wavefront diagnostic unit creates a ___ highlighting individual imperfections(Zernicke)

A

map of the eye

81
Q

What is wavefront diagnostic units used for…

A

Custom Lasik, advanced IOLs such as the tecnis IOL

82
Q

Test that detects decreased corneal sensitivity due to corneal and neurological conditions.

A

Corneal sensitivity testing

83
Q

What condition would pt likely have if doctor is doing corneal sensitivity testing?

A

HSK, HZV, Long term CL wear, Corneal dystrophies, K scars, trachoma, DM, or 5th CN (aka Trigeminal nerve)

84
Q

Decrease corneal sensitivity is often the first sign of damage to the ___CN

A

5th

85
Q

How do you perform K sensitivity testing?

A

ask pt to look in opposite direction, approach the K with a cotton wisp, when you touch K with the wisp ask pt if they felt it. Blinking does not mean they felt it, they could have seen it. Use separate wisp for each eye. Ask if they felt the same on both K.
