  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Thus a prism of 1 Δ would produce 1 cm visible displacement at 100 cm, or 1 meter. This can be represented mathematically as: = ⁡ where is the amount of prism correction in prism dioptres, and is the angle of deviation of the light.

    It uses the formula Δ E Q = ( 1 − a 0 2 ) ( E C I S D − E H F ) , {\displaystyle \Delta E_{Q}=(1-a_{0}^{2})(E_{\rm {CISD}}-E_{\rm {HF}}),\ } E C I S D T Q ≈ E C I S D + Δ E Q , {\displaystyle E_{\rm {CISDTQ}}\approx E_{\rm {CISD}}+\Delta E_{Q},\ }

  4. Esophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esophoria

    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.

  6. Maddox wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_Wing

    Maddox wing. The Maddox Wing is an instrument utilized by ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists in the measurement of strabismus (misalignment of the eyes; commonly referred to as a squint or lazy eye by the lay person). It is a quantitative and subjective method of measuring the size of a strabismic deviation by dissociation of the ...

  7. Exotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exotropia

    Specialty. Ophthalmology. Exotropia is a form of strabismus where the eyes are deviated outward. It is the opposite of esotropia and usually involves more severe axis deviation than exophoria. People with exotropia often experience crossed diplopia. Intermittent exotropia is a fairly common condition. "Sensory exotropia" occurs in the presence ...

  8. Cyclotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclotropia

    Cyclotropia is a form of strabismus in which, compared to the correct positioning of the eyes, there is a torsion of one eye (or both) about the eye's visual axis. Consequently, the visual fields of the two eyes appear tilted relative to each other. The corresponding latent condition – a condition in which torsion occurs only in the absence ...

    Assuming also that the degeneracy is completely lifted to the first order, i.e. that () if , we have the following formulae for the energy correction to the second order in E n k = E n 0 + λ V n k , n k + λ 2 ∑ m ≠ n | V m , n k | 2 E n ( 0 ) − E m ( 0 ) + O ( λ 3 ) , {\displaystyle E_{nk}=E_{n}^{0}+\lambda V_{nk,nk}+\lambda ^{2}\sum ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicol_prism

    A Nicol prism is a type of polarizer. It is an optical device made from calcite crystal used to convert ordinary light into plane polarized light . It is made in such a way that it eliminates one of the rays by total internal reflection , i.e. the ordinary ray is eliminated and only the extraordinary ray is transmitted through the prism .
