Q

What is myopia?

A

Near-sightedness. Condition in which eye cannot focus on distant objects. Light rays converge too early, thus image doesnt form at retina.

To correct it: DIVERGING / CONVEX, negative meniscus

Q

What is hyperopia?

A

Far sightedness. Eye cannot focus on nearby objects. Light rays converge too late, thus image doesnt form at retina.

To correct it: CONVERGING / CONCAVE, positive meniscus

Q

How does lasik eye surgery work?

A
  • Separate thin layer from front of cornea
  • Laser sculpts the cornea bed into corrective shape
  • Laser reshapes it so when light enters the eye lens it refracts appropriately to allow light rays to form image at retina.
