  2. Maddox rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_rod

    The Maddox rod test can be used to subjectively detect and measure a latent, manifest, horizontal or vertical strabismus for near and distance. The test is based on the principle of diplopic projection. [1] Dissociation of the deviation is brought about by presenting a red line image to one eye and a white light to the other, while prisms are ...

  3. Phloroglucinol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phloroglucinol

    Phloroglucinol is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 3 (OH) 3. It is a colorless solid. It is used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and explosives. Phloroglucinol is one of three isomeric benzenetriols. The other two isomers are hydroxyquinol (1,2,4-benzenetriol) and pyrogallol (1,2,3-benzenetriol).

  4. Fixation disparity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_disparity

    A fixation disparity is not constant within a certain observer, but can vary depending on the viewing conditions. If test prisms with increasing amount are placed in front of the observer’s eyes, the fixation disparity changes in the eso direction with base-in prisms and in the exo direction with base-out prisms (Fig. 3). These prisms force ...

  5. Mesitylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesitylene

    Mesitylene or 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene is a derivative of benzene with three methyl substituents positioned symmetrically around the ring. The other two isomeric trimethylbenzenes are 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene (pseudocumene) and 1,2,3-trimethylbenzene (hemimellitene). All three compounds have the formula C 6 H 3 (CH 3) 3, which is commonly ...

  6. Maddox wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_Wing

    Maddox wing. The Maddox Wing is an instrument utilized by ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists in the measurement of strabismus (misalignment of the eyes; commonly referred to as a squint or lazy eye by the lay person). It is a quantitative and subjective method of measuring the size of a strabismic deviation by dissociation of the ...

  7. Exotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exotropia

    Specialty. Ophthalmology. Exotropia is a form of strabismus where the eyes are deviated outward. It is the opposite of esotropia and usually involves more severe axis deviation than exophoria. People with exotropia often experience crossed diplopia. Intermittent exotropia is a fairly common condition. "Sensory exotropia" occurs in the presence ...

  8. Exophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exophoria

    Exophoria. Exophoria is a form of heterophoria in which there is a tendency of the eyes to deviate outward. [1] During examination, when the eyes are dissociated, the visual axes will appear to diverge away from one another. [2] The axis deviation in exophoria is usually mild compared with that of exotropia.

  9. 1,3,5-Triheptylbenzene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,3,5-Triheptylbenzene

    Infobox references. 1,3,5-Triheptylbenzene (also called sym-triheptylbenzene) is an aromatic organic compound with a chemical formula C. 27H. 48 and molar mass 372.67 g/mol. [ 1] It can be prepared by the hydrogenation reduction reaction of 1,1',1''- (benzene-1,3,5-triyl)tris (heptan-1-one). [ 2] Alternatively, 1-nonyne trimerizes to 1,3,5 ...
