  2. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    Consider a pair of spectacles to correct for myopia with a prescription of −1.00 m −1 in one eye and −4.00 m −1 in the other. Suppose that for both eyes the other parameters are identical, namely t = 1 mm = 0.001 m, n = 1.6, P = 5 m −1, and h = 15 mm = 0.015 m.

  3. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    For extreme nearsightedness, the eyes appear small and sunken into the face, and the sides of the skull can be visible through the lens. This gives the wearer the appearance of having a very large or fat head in contrast with their eyes. For extreme farsightedness the eyes appear very large on the face, making the wearer's head seem too small.

  4. Refractive error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_error

    Myopia or Nearsightedness: When the refractive power is too strong for the length of the eyeball, this is called myopia or nearsightedness. People with myopia typically have blurry vision when viewing distant objects because the eye is refracting more than necessary.

  5. Radial keratotomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radial_keratotomy

    Radial keratotomy (RK) is a refractive surgical procedure to correct myopia (nearsightedness). It was developed in 1974 by Svyatoslav Fyodorov, a Russian ophthalmologist. It has been largely supplanted by newer, more accurate operations, such as photorefractive keratectomy, LASIK, Epi-LASIK and the phakic intraocular lens. [1]

  6. Small incision lenticule extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_incision_lenticule...

    One conspicuous difference between SMILE and LASIK is the size and shape of the corneal incision. In LASIK, the surgeon performs a 270-degree, 20 mm long incision, while in SMILE the so-called "side cap cut", which is the incision through which the surgeon extracts the lenticule, is usually about 4 mm long.

  7. Farsightedness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farsightedness

    If the brain never learns to see objects in detail, then there is a high chance of one eye becoming dominant. The result is that the brain will block the impulses of the non-dominant eye. In contrast, the child with myopia can see objects close to the eye in detail and does learn at an early age to see objects in detail. [medical citation needed]

  8. LASIK - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LASIK

    LASIK or Lasik (/ ˈ l eɪ s ɪ k /; "laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis"), commonly referred to as laser eye surgery or laser vision correction, is a type of refractive surgery for the correction of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. [1]

  9. Pinhole occluder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinhole_occluder

    A pinhole occluder is an opaque disk with one or more small holes through it, used by ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists to test visual acuity. The occluder is a simple way to focus light, as in a pinhole camera, temporarily removing the effects of refractive errors such as myopia. Because light passes only through the center of the ...
