  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    A lens which includes some amount of prism correction will displace the viewed image horizontally, vertically, or a combination of both directions. The most common application for this is the treatment of strabismus. By moving the image in front of the deviated eye, double vision can be avoided and comfortable binocular vision can be achieved ...

  3. Aberrations of the eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberrations_of_the_eye

    Different kinds of aberrations may have equal RMS across the pupil but have different effects on vision, therefore, RMS error is unrelated to visual performance. The majority of eyes have total RMS values less than 0.3 μm.

  4. Subjective refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_refraction

    Step 1: Using the +/-0.50DS on the confirmation set to determine the initial best sphere correction. Step 2: Presenting the 0.50JCC initially @ 90deg to determine any presence of astigmatism on that axis. Step 3: The axis of the JCC must straddle the axis of the correcting cylinder in the trial frames, in both flip positions.

  5. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

    Invert the sign of cylinder value. Add 90° to axis value, and if the new axis value exceeds 180°, subtract 180° from the result. For example, a lens with a vertical power of −3.75 and a horizontal power of −2.25 could be specified as either −2.25 −1.50 × 180 or −3.75 +1.50 × 090.

  6. Duochrome test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duochrome_test

    A duochrome test is a test commonly used to refine the final sphere in refraction (undercorrection and overcorrection), which makes use of the longitudinal chromatic aberration of the eye. Because of the chromatic aberration of the eye, the shorter wavelengths (green) are focused in front of the longer red wavelengths.

  7. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    A pair of contact lenses, positioned with the concave side facing upward. A corrective lens is a transmissive optical device that is worn on the eye to improve visual perception. The most common use is to treat refractive errors: myopia, hypermetropia, astigmatism, and presbyopia.

  8. Diplopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diplopia

    Treatment options include eye exercises, wearing an eye patch on alternative eyes, prism correction, and in more extreme situations, surgery or botulinum toxin. If your provider diagnoses swelling or inflammation of, or around the nerve, medicines called corticosteroids may be used.

  9. Optical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_aberration

    Optical aberration. 1: Imaging by a lens with chromatic aberration. 2: A lens with less chromatic aberration. In optics, aberration is a property of optical systems, such as lenses, that causes light to be spread out over some region of space rather than focused to a point. [1]

  10. Fixation disparity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_disparity

    Observers with a fixation disparity are more likely to report eye strain in demanding visual tasks; therefore, tests of fixation disparity belong to the diagnostic tools used by eye care professionals: remediation includes vision therapy, prism eye glasses, or visual ergonomics at the workplace.

  11. Schmidt–Pechan prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmidt–Pechan_prism

    Schmidt–Pechan prism. A Schmidt–Pechan prism, side view (top) and 3D-view (bottom). A Schmidt–Pechan prism is a type of optical prism used to rotate an image by 180°. These prisms are commonly used in binoculars as an image erecting system. The Schmidt–Pechan prism makes use of a roof prism section (from the German: "Dachkante", lit ...
