  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    A lens which includes some amount of prism correction will displace the viewed image horizontally, vertically, or a combination of both directions. The most common application for this is the treatment of strabismus. By moving the image in front of the deviated eye, double vision can be avoided and comfortable binocular vision can be achieved ...

  3. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    A corrective lens is a transmissive optical device that is worn on the eye to improve visual perception. The most common use is to treat refractive errors: myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. Glasses or "spectacles" are worn on the face a short distance in front of the eye.

  4. Diplopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

    Neurology, ophthalmology. Diplopia is the simultaneous perception of two images of a single object that may be displaced horizontally or vertically in relation to each other. [1] Also called double vision, it is a loss of visual focus under regular conditions, and is often voluntary.

  5. Lenticular lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenticular_lens

    This enabled color pictures with the use of merely monochrome film stock. Angle of view of a lenticular print. The angle of view of a lenticular print is the range of angles within which the observer can see the entire image. This is determined by the maximum angle at which a ray can leave the image through the correct lenticule.

  6. Visual system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_system

    Cones are found primarily in the center (or fovea) of the retina. There are three types of cones that differ in the wavelengths of light they absorb; they are usually called short or blue, middle or green, and long or red. Cones mediate day vision and can distinguish color and other features of the visual world at medium and high light levels ...

  7. Hypertropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypertropia

    Prism therapy (if tolerated, to manage diplopia) Vision Therapy. Patching (mainly to manage amblyopia in children and diplopia in adults) Botulinum toxin injection. Surgical correction. Surgical correction of the hypertropia is desired to achieve binocularity, manage diplopia and/or correct the cosmetic defect.

  8. Visual phototransduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_phototransduction

    Visual phototransduction is the sensory transduction process of the visual system by which light is detected by photoreceptor cells (rods and cones) in the vertebrate retina. A photon is absorbed by a retinal chromophore (each bound to an opsin ), which initiates a signal cascade through several intermediate cells, then through the retinal ...

  9. Double cone (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_cone_(biology)

    Double cone (biology) Double cones ( DCs ), known as twin cones when the two members are the same, are two cone cells ( colour detecting photoreceptors) joined together that may also be coupled optically/electrically. [1] They are the most common type of cone cells in fish, reptiles, birds, and monotremes such as the platypus and are present in ...

  10. Duplex retina - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplex_retina

    A duplex retina is a retina consisting of both rod cells and cone cells, [1] which are the photoreceptor cells for two parallel but mostly separate visual systems. The rods enable the scotopic visual system, which is active in dim light. The cones enable the photopic visual system, which is active in bright light.

  11. Suppression (eye) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suppression_(eye)

    Suppression of an eye is a subconscious adaptation by a person's brain to eliminate the symptoms of disorders of binocular vision such as strabismus, convergence insufficiency and aniseikonia. The brain can eliminate double vision by ignoring all or part of the image of one of the eyes.
