Q

list the process for operation of the mechanical instrument for the optician to take the distance measurement of patient PD

25
list the 4 important fitting considerations (criteria in selecting and evaluating the proper fit of eyeglass frames

26
after selecting the patients frame what aare the next 2 steps we must perform if the selected lenses are multifocal
Measure PD and Seg Height
27
explain anti-reflective coating/treatment vs blue light absorptive filter
