|
T1xT2xT3 (all multiplied)

Color tints:
1. What is best for a hunter/shooter? 2. What's best for driving in haze/fog? 3. What's best for a blast furnace worker? 4. What's best for a sales person who works in a cubicle and complains of the glare at their desk (probably from the fluorescent lighting)? 5. What's best for the person trying to hide their segmented bifocals? |
1. yellow
2. amber/yellow 3. blue 4. pink (Soft lite) 5. pink |
|
Color tints:
1. What tint has uniform absorption across the whole spectrum? 2. Which tints provide UV protection? |
1. gray
2. brown (some selective UV protection) and yellow (excellent) |
|
How do we minimize reflections from surfaces of glasses?
|
AR coating
|
|
The intensity of reflected light increases as the ________ increases.
|
index of refraction (ex: POLYCARB needs AR coating)
|
|
Is AR coating a "cure" for the multiple ring effect?
|
No (bc the light is coming thru the edge of the lens, not the front or back where AR is placed)
|
|
What Rx is the patient more likely to develop amblyopia:
One eye emmetropic, one hyperopic One eye emmetropic, one eye myopic |
One eye emmetropic, one eye hyperopic
|
|
What is slab off prism used to correct?
|
vertical prism (caused by anisometropic Rxs when looking down thru the glasses)
|
|
What image size difference causes the most frequent complaints of aniseikonia?
What are the top symptoms for those with aniseikonia? |
1-2.5%
asthenopia and headaches |
|
T or F: One of the most common complaints with aniseikonia is perceptual distortion of space.
|
F!!! last common symptom
|
|
T or F: spectacle mag is a monocular phenomenon
|
T
|
|
Spectacle magnification has what two components? What are the things we can change about each one? Which one do we end up changing (since the other gives minimal results)
|
shape factor: B.C. and thickness
power factor: vertex distance (back vertex power is a part of this but we can't change it!) shape factor |
|
Lenses designed to eliminate or minimize aniseikonia are called what?
|
Iseikonic or Eikonic lenses
|
|
T or F: Aniseikonia is a monocular phenomenon.
|
F binocular
|
|
Iseikonic lenses ____ the magnification of the more plus lens and _____ the mag of the more minus lens.
|
decrease (flatten b.c. and make it thinner); increase
|
|
_____________= magnification that results from decreasing the distance of the object from the eye.
How do you calculate it? |
relative distance mag
if you bring print from 40cm to 10cm, 40/10= 4x RDM (and you need a +10D lens) |
|
__________= increasing the size of an object without moving its position.
Is additional accommodation needed? |
relative size mag; no
|
|
________= mag. from optical or electronic enlargement
|
projection mag.
|
|
____ mag.= produced by the optical system; size of an object with and without the optical system
|
angular mag.
|
|
A galilean telescope has a ____ image. A keplerian has a ___ image.
|
erect; inverted
|
|
T or F: a galilean telescope will be shorter than a keplerian for any given mag.
|
T (also lighter)
|
|
For an uncorrected myope, which telescope will give greater mag?
For an uncorrected hyperope, which telescope will have greater mag.? |
keplerian
galilean |
|
___________= a single plus lens held at the spectacle plane; used to compare devices
|
equivalent power
|
|
What's the primary goal of a microscopic lens?
|
to allow for RDM
|
|
With a telescope with reading cap, what determines the working distance?
|
the reading cap power
|
|
If you put the hand magnifier closer than the _______, accommodation must be used.
|
primary focal plane
|
|
T or F: a disadvantage of a paperweight magnifier is that it has relatively low mag.
|
T
|
|

|
10-20; 50-70cm
|
|
