Prentice's rule, named so after the optician Charles F. Prentice, is a formula used to determine the amount of induced prism in a lens: = where: P is the amount of prism correction (in prism dioptres) c is decentration (the distance between the pupil centre and the lens's optical centre, in millimetres)
Examples of recordings are shown below: MR: sc (F) L/R 5∆ eso 8∆ (FR) MR: sc (F) L/5∆ eso 8∆ (FR) MR: sc (F) 5∆ BD 8∆BO (FR) sc: without correction - F: far - N: near - FR: fixing right - FL: fixing left - BD: base down prisms - BU: base up prisms - BO: base out prisms - BI: base in prisms - eso: esotropia - exo: exotropias
Square antiprism. In geometry, the square antiprism is the second in an infinite family of antiprisms formed by an even-numbered sequence of triangle sides closed by two polygon caps. It is also known as an anticube. [1] If all its faces are regular, it is a semiregular polyhedron or uniform polyhedron .
An example of a molecular species with square prismatic geometry (a slightly flattened cube) is octafluoroprotactinate(V), [PaF 8] 3–, as found in its sodium salt, Na 3 PaF 8. While local cubic 8-coordination is common in ionic lattices (e.g., Ca 2+ in CaF 2 ), and some 8-coordinate actinide complexes are approximately cubic, there are no ...
Amblyopia. Anisometropia is a condition in which a person's eyes have substantially differing refractive power. [1] Generally, a difference in power of one diopter (1D) is the threshold for diagnosis of the condition . [2] [3] Patients may have up to 3D of anisometropia before the condition becomes clinically significant due to headache, eye ...
Heterophoria is the misalignment of the visual axis such that one or both eyes are not properly fixated to an object of interest. When the visual axis is misaligned in such a way, it is corrected by the fusional vergence system. Diagnosis. The cross-cover test, or alternating cover test is usually employed to detect heterophoria.
If the eye was exotropic, covering the fixating eye will cause an inwards movement; and if esotropic, covering the fixating eye will cause an outwards movement. The alternating cover test, or cross cover test is used to detect total deviation (tropia + phoria).
It is intended to control the family-wise error rate (FWER) and offers a simple test uniformly more powerful than the Bonferroni correction. It is named after Sture Holm, who codified the method, and Carlo Emilio Bonferroni.
Esophoria is an eye condition involving inward deviation of the eye, usually due to extra-ocular muscle imbalance. It is a type of heterophoria. Cause. Causes include: Refractive errors; Divergence insufficiency; Convergence excess; this can be due to nerve, muscle, congenital or mechanical anomalies.
For example, Base in (BI), Base out (BO), Base up (BU) or Base down (BD). The angle of the deviation with the units in prism dioptres. Which eye is fixating and which eye is deviating. Whether the test was performed with or without an abnormal head posture.
