When measuring horizontal fusion ranges, base in prisms assess fusional divergence while base out prisms assess fusional convergence. The vertical fusional vergence amplitude can also be measured with base up and base down prisms although the horizontal PFR is typically the main focus when testing.
If the line appears below the light, there will be a hyper-deviation in which base down prisms are used to measure and correct the deviation. If the line appears above the light, there will be a hypo-deviation and base up prisms are used measure and correct the deviation.
The Four Prism Dioptre Reflex Test (also known as the 4 PRT, or 4 Prism Dioptre Base-out Test) is an objective, non-dissociative test used to prove the alignment of both eyes (i.e. the presence of binocular single vision) by assessing motor fusion.
In geometry, a prism is a polyhedron comprising an n-sided polygon base, a second base which is a translated copy (rigidly moved without rotation) of the first, and n other faces, necessarily all parallelograms, joining corresponding sides of the two bases.
The base is the thickest part of the lens and is opposite from the apex. Light will be bent towards the base and the image will be shifted towards the apex. In an eyeglass prescription, the base is typically specified as up, down, in, or out, but left and right are also used sometimes.
In optics, a dispersive prism is an optical prism that is used to disperse light, that is, to separate light into its spectral components (the colors of the rainbow). Different wavelengths (colors) of light will be deflected by the prism at different angles. [1]
In geometry, a triangular prism or trigonal prism is a prism with 2 triangular bases. If the edges pair with each triangle's vertex and if they are perpendicular to the base, it is a right triangular prism. A right triangular prism may be both semiregular and uniform. The triangular prism can be used in constructing another polyhedron.
In order to design such a prism, we let ¯ =, and simultaneously solving equations and gives δ 1 ( λ ¯ ) = − δ 2 ( λ ¯ ) = − Δ ( 1 V 2 − 1 V 1 ) − 1 , {\displaystyle \delta _{1}({\bar {\lambda }})=-\delta _{2}({\bar {\lambda }})=-\Delta {\Big (}{\frac {1}{V_{2}}}-{\frac {1}{V_{1}}}{\Big )}^{-1}\ ,}
3D model of a (uniform) pentagonal prism. In geometry, the pentagonal prism is a prism with a pentagonal base. It is a type of heptahedron with seven faces, fifteen edges, and ten vertices.
