  2. Square antiprism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_antiprism

    According to the VSEPR theory of molecular geometry in chemistry, which is based on the general principle of maximizing the distances between points, a square antiprism is the favoured geometry when eight pairs of electrons surround a central atom. One molecule with this geometry is the octafluoroxenate(VI) ion (XeF 2−

  3. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    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 ...

  4. 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.

  5. Square antiprismatic molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_antiprismatic...

    In chemistry, the square antiprismatic molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where eight atoms, groups of atoms, or ligands are arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of a square antiprism.

  6. Antiprism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiprism

    Example: a retrograde star antiprism with regular star 7/5-gon bases (vertex configuration: 3.3.3.7/5) cannot be uniform. Also, star antiprism compounds with regular star p/q -gon bases can be constructed if p and q have common factors. Example: a star 10/4-antiprism is the compound of two star 5/2-antiprisms.

  7. 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 ...

  8. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    Two motifs for fusing octahedra are common: edge-sharing and face-sharing. Edge- and face-shared bioctahedra have the formulas [M 2 L 8 (μ-L)] 2 and M 2 L 6 (μ-L) 3, respectively. Polymeric versions of the same linking pattern give the stoichiometries [ML 2 (μ-L) 2] ∞ and [M(μ-L) 3] ∞, respectively.

  9. 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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_boundary_conditions

    One example of periodic boundary conditions can be defined according to smooth real functions : by ∂ m ∂ x 1 m ϕ ( a 1 , x 2 , . . . , x n ) = ∂ m ∂ x 1 m ϕ ( b 1 , x 2 , . . . , x n ) , {\displaystyle {\frac {\partial ^{m}}{\partial x_{1}^{m}}}\phi (a_{1},x_{2},...,x_{n})={\frac {\partial ^{m}}{\partial x_{1}^{m}}}\phi (b_{1},x_{2 ...

    This shape has D 2d symmetry and is one of the three common shapes for octacoordinate transition metal complexes, along with the square antiprism and the bicapped trigonal prism. [1] [2] One example of the dodecahedral molecular geometry is the Mo(CN) 4−
