Things I’ve Done for others “Helping someone do something isn’t just helping them, it’s helping you.” Have you ever done anything for anyone? Do you know how remarkable it feels?

We provided vision screenings to four year olds at a public Pre-K. We had the children sit in a chair at a distance of ten feet from the Snellen chart. We pointed at pictures and asked the child to identify a house, apple, and umbrella. Some children were nervous and very quiet, so we had them point to paper we had with pictures of a house, an apple, and an umbrella. Each child was given a fun pair of glasses with one eye covered. The child had to get four out of five correct on a line and then…

One such inquiry is the meaning behind the term “20/20 vision.” This term expresses normal visual acuity (in other words, the sharpness, or clarity, of vision) measured at a distance of 20 feet. People with 20/20 vision can clearly see the objects that should normally be seen at 20 feet. However, 20/20 does not necessarily mean perfect vision. The term only indicates the sharpness…

Visual acuity Main article: Visual acuity Visual acuity is the eye's ability to detect fine details and is the quantitative measure of the eye's ability to see an in-focus image at a certain distance. The standard definition of normal visual acuity (20/20 or 6/6 vision) is the ability to resolve a spatial pattern separated by a visual angle of one minute of arc. The terms 20/20 and 6/6 are derived from standardized sized objects that can be seen by a "person of normal vision" at the specified…
