Anisha is 20 years old, and has a prescription of -3.00 DS and pinhole
acuity of 6/6
* What is her vision likely to be recorded as?
Her optometrist found a retinoscopy result of -2.50 DS
* What acuity is she likely to achieve with this result?
A second optometrist found a result of -3.50 DS
* What acuity is she likely to achieve now?
has a prescription of -3.00 DS and
pinhole acuity of 6/6 she was uncorrecgted -3.00D so in image formed in the front of the retina estimated vision: 3/36
retinoscopy result of -2.50 DS. she was undercorrested by -0.50DS image still formed in front of retina but closer to the fovea estimated VA: 6/9
found a result of -3.50 DS overcorrested by -0.50 image formed behind the retina estimates VA: 6/6 as younger patient can accomodate
Rob is 25 years old and has a refractive error of +6.00 DS
* What is his vision likely to be?
retinoscopy result of +5.00 DS what is his VA likely to be??
retinoscopy result of +7.00 DS
What is his acuity likely to be?
ref error of +6.00 which patient was uncorrected by image forms behind the retina estimated VA worse that 6/6 due to high hyperopia
ret of +5.00 undercorrected by +1.00DS image formed behind retina w this lens estimated VA: 6/6 as patient can accommodate +1DS
ret of +7.00DS overcorrected by +1.00DS image is formed in front of the retina w this lens due to overcorrection by 1 so estimated VA: 6/18
Elaine is 60 years old and has a refractive error of -3.00
DS and pinhole acuity of 6/6
What is his vision likely to be?
retinoscopy result of -2.50 DS
* What acuity is she likely to achieve with this result?
found a result of -3.50 DS What acuity is she likely to achieve now?
patient uncorrected by -3.00DS the image will form in front of the retina estimated VA: 3/36
patient undercorrected by -0.50DS image will form in front of retina estimated VA: 6/9
patient was overcorrected by -0.50 of image will form behind the retina estiamted VA: 6/9 as older patients cant accommodate
Lesley is 22 has a prescription of -4.00DS and a pinhole acuity of 6/6 the optom put a -3.00DS in front of her eye what level of scuiy is she likely to acheive?
corrected by -1.00DS so 6/18
you have refrqacted a patient and found that the best sphere is -1.50 DS however patient has VA of 6/9 and u find that their acuity improves to 6/6 w/ a pinhole. what is the estimated amnt of uncorrected cyl power??
patients VA is 6/9 so cyl is -1.00DC
