  2. Esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esotropia

    Treatment options for esotropia include glasses to correct refractive errors (see accommodative esotropia below), the use of prisms, orthoptic exercises, or eye muscle surgery. The term is from Greek eso meaning "inward" and trope meaning "a turning".

  3. Maddox rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_rod

    The strength of the prism is increased until the streak of the light passes through the centre of the prism, as the strength of the prism indicates the amount of deviation present. The Maddox rod is a handheld instrument composed of red parallel plano convex cylinder lens , which refracts light rays so that a point source of light is seen as a ...

  4. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]

  5. Diplopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

    Specialty. 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.

  6. Strabismus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strabismus

    Incomitant strabismus cannot be fully corrected by prism glasses, because the eyes would require different degrees of prismatic correction dependent on the direction of the gaze. Incomitant strabismus of the eso- or exo-type are classified as "alphabet patterns": they are denoted as A- or V- or more rarely λ -, Y- or X-pattern depending on the ...

  7. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(optics)

    Prism (optics) An optical prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that are designed to refract light. At least one surface must be angled — elements with two parallel surfaces are not prisms. The most familiar type of optical prism is the triangular prism, which has a triangular base and rectangular sides.

    Étienne-Louis Malus ( / ˈɛt.i.ɛn ˈluː.i məˈluːs /; French: [e.tjɛn.lwi ma.lys]; 23 July 1775 – 23 February 1812) was a French officer, engineer, physicist, and mathematician . Malus was born in Paris, France. He participated in Napoleon's expedition into Egypt (1798 to 1801) and was a member of the mathematics section of the ...

  10. PRISM model checker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PRISM_model_checker

    PRISM model checker. PRISM is a probabilistic model checker, a formal verification software tool for the modelling and analysis of systems that exhibit probabilistic behaviour. [1] One source of such systems is the use of randomization, for example in communication protocols like Bluetooth and FireWire, or in security protocols such as Crowds ...

  11. SPAdes (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPAdes_(software)

    SPAdes modifies the previously used bulge removal approach and iterative de Bruijn graph approach from Peng et al (2010) and creates a new approach called ‘‘bulge corremoval’’, which stands for bulge correction and removal. The bulge corremoval algorithm can be summarized as follows: a simple bulge is formed by two small and similar ...
