  2. Binocular rivalry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binocular_rivalry

    Binocular rivalry is a phenomenon of visual perception in which perception alternates between different images presented to each eye. [1] An image demonstrating binocular rivalry. If one views the image with red-cyan 3D glasses, the text will alternate between red and blue. 3D red cyan glasses are recommended to view this image correctly.

  3. Humphrey visual field analyser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humphrey_Visual_Field_Analyser

    A negative value indicates field loss, while a positive value indicates that the field is above average. A P value is provided if the global indices are abnormal. It provides a statistical representation of the population. For example, P <2% means that less than 2% of the population have vision loss worse than measured [19]

  4. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    In this example the first eye, with a −1.00 diopter prescription, is the stronger eye, needing only slight correction to sharpen the image formed, and hence a thin spectacle lens. The second eye, with a −4.00 diopter prescription, is the weaker eye, needing moderate correction to sharpen the image formed, and hence a moderately thick ...

    Instrument Uses Toric Marker: to mark 0 to 180 degree reference mark for Toric IOL implant Pre-chopper: to chop lens into pieces before implantation new lens and reduce phaco time

  6. Autorefractor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autorefractor

    By measuring this zone, the autorefractor can determine when a patient's eye properly focuses an image. The instrument changes its magnification until the image comes into focus. The process is repeated in at least three meridians of the eye and the autorefractor calculates the refraction of the eye, sphere, cylinder and axis.

  7. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

    The geometry of a toric lens focuses light differently in different meridians. A meridian, in this case, is a plane that is incident with the optical axis. For example, a toric lens, when rotated correctly, could focus an object to the image of a horizontal line at one focal distance while focusing a vertical line to a separate focal distance.

  8. Subjective refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subjective_refraction

    For example, the patient prefers the -0.50 JCC at 180°. The refraction of a -0.50JCC at 180° is: +0.50/-1.00 x 180°. Therefore, a -1.00DC will be inserted into the trial frames at 180°, and an additional +0.50DS is also added to compensate for the spherical equivalent.

  9. Aberrations of the eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberrations_of_the_eye

    For light to converge to a perfect point, the wavefront emerging from the optical system must be a perfect sphere centered on the image point. The distance in micrometers between the actual wavefront and the ideal wavefront is the wavefront aberration, which is the standard method of showing the aberrations of the eye.
