Cannot be corrected by a lens.
Presbyopia - ANSWER ->Natural aging of crystalline lens. Affects accommodation. Corrected by additional plus power
Diopter - ANSWER ->Unit of measure for optical lenses
Lens Types - ANSWER ->Single, spherical, planocylindrical,
Spherocylindrical, Multifocal
Lens Materials - ANSWER ->Glass, Plastic, Polycarbonate, High
Index, Trivex
Dermatochalasis - ANSWER ->baggy eyelid; (chalasis = slackening)
Hyperglycemia - ANSWER ->High blood sugar
Hypertension - ANSWER ->High blood pressure
Corneal Edema - ANSWER ->Swelling due to influx of fluid, most commonly is a response to oxygen deficiency.
Retinopathy - ANSWER ->any disorder of retinal blood vessels
Strabismus - ANSWER ->crossed eyes
Refractive Amblyopia - ANSWER ->amblyopia due to uncorrected
..anisometropia or astigmatism
1
, Anisometropia - ANSWER ->One eye has greater than one diopter difference in refraction from the other eye. Must
correct this condition in order to prevent ambylopia?
Ocular Adnexa - ANSWER ->The eyelid, eyelashes, eyebrow, lacrimal apparatus,
Emmetropia - ANSWER ->The state of refraction of the eye in which parallel rays, when the eye is at rest, are focused
exactly on the retina.
Optical Infinity - ANSWER ->20 feet
Biomicroscope - ANSWER ->Tabletop microscope for examining the cornea, lens and otherwise clear fluids and
membranes to be examined in layer by layer detail.
Keratometer - ANSWER ->An instrument used to measure the curvature of the cornea.
Opthalmoscope - ANSWER ->An instrument used to examine the interior of the eye
Lensometer - ANSWER ->device for obtaining eyeglass prescriptions
OCT - ANSWER ->Optical Coherence Tomography
Mydriatic Drop - ANSWER ->Placed into the eyes to produce temporary paralysis, forcing pupils to remain dilated
Hyphema (hi-fee-mah) - ANSWER ->blood in anterior chamber of the eye, as seen during the fundoscopic exam
Hypopyon (hi-poh-pee-on) - ANSWER ->pus in the anterior chamber of the eye
Idopsin - ANSWER ->The light sensitive pigment in Cones.
Krause Gland - ANSWER ->Located underneath eyelid. Produces tears which are secreted onto the surface of the
conjunctiva.
