  2. Fixation disparity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_disparity

    This x-intercept is also referred to as aligning prism or – in earlier times – as associated phoria when the subjective nonius method was used (sP 0) the slope of the curve near zero prism load; Fig. 3: Fixation disparity as a function of the forced vergence angle which is induced by base-in prisms and base-out prisms in front of the eyes.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Prism fusion range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_fusion_range

    The prism fusion range (PFR) or fusional vergence amplitude is a clinical eye test performed by orthoptists, optometrists, and ophthalmologists to assess motor fusion, specifically the extent to which a patient can maintain binocular single vision (BSV) in the presence of increasing vergence demands. Motor fusion is largely accounted to ...

  5. 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.

  6. Basis of a matroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_of_a_matroid

    The bases of a matroid characterize the matroid completely: a set is independent if and only if it is a subset of a basis. Moreover, one may define a matroid to be a pair , where is the ground-set and is a collection of subsets of , called "bases", with the following properties: [7][8] (B1) There is at least one base --.

  7. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2] Thus a prism of 1 Δ would produce 1 cm visible displacement at 100 cm, or 1 metre. This can be represented mathematically as: = ⁡ where is the amount of prism correction in prism dioptres, and is the angle of deviation of the light.

  8. Prism cover test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_Cover_Test

    measuring strabismus. The prism cover test (PCT) is an objective measurement and the gold standard in measuring strabismus, i.e. ocular misalignment, or a deviation of the eye. [1] It is used by ophthalmologists and orthoptists in order to measure the vertical and horizontal deviation and includes both manifest and latent components. [1]

  9. Schauder basis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schauder_basis

    If X is a Banach space with a Schauder basis {e n} n ≥ 1 such that the biorthogonal functionals are a basis of the dual, that is to say, a Banach space with a shrinking basis, then the space K(X) admits a basis formed by the rank one operators e* j ⊗ e k : v → e* j (v) e k, with the same ordering as before.
