  2. Alpins method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpins_method

    [1] [2] [3] The Alpins Method is also used to plan cataract/toric intraocular lens (IOL) surgical procedures. [4] The Alpins Method uses vector mathematics to determine a goal for astigmatism correction and analyze factors involved if treatment fails to reach that goal. The method can also be used to refine surgical techniques or correct laser ...

  3. Astigmatism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astigmatism

    Astigmatism, whether it is regular or irregular, is caused by some combination of external (corneal surface) and internal (posterior corneal surface, human lens, fluids, retina, and eye-brain interface) optical properties. In some people, the external optics may have the greater influence, and in other people, the internal optics may predominate.

    Figure 2 - Chin Rest and Lens Holder. The analyser test takes approximately 5–8 minutes, excluding patient set up. There are multiple steps which need to be done before commencement of the test to ensure reliable results are attained. The test type and eye are firstly selected and the patient's details are entered, including their refractive ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackson_cross_cylinder

    Jackson cross cylinder of +/- 0.25 diopter. Jackson cross cylinder is a single low power lens, which is a combination of a plus cylinder and a minus cylinder of equal power with axis perpendicular to each other, with a handle placed between the two axes at 45 degrees.

  7. Refractive error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_error

    A distant object is defined as an object located beyond 6 meters (20 feet) from the eye. [citation needed] When an object is located close to the eye, the rays of light from this object no longer approach the eye parallel to each other. Consequently, the eye must increase its refractive power to bring those rays of light together on the retina.

  8. Limbal relaxing incisions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limbal_relaxing_incisions

    Limbal relaxing incisions (LRI) are a refractive surgical procedure to correct minor astigmatism in the eye. Incisions part way through the cornea are made at one side or at opposite edges of the cornea, following the curve of the iris, causing a slight flattening of the cornea in that area. [1]

  9. Subjective refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_refraction

    An occluder is placed over the eye that is not being tested (e.g.: over the left eye, to test the right eye's vision). A pinhole occluder is then placed before the patient's eye, and their vision is then tested again (each eye separately) to determine if the patient's poor visual acuity is a result of optical irregularities, or pathological issues.
