Guaranteed Pass!!Current Update!!
1. What are the three important aspects of the eye and vision evaluated by a
comprehensive eye exam? - ANSWER Optics/Refractive error, Binocular
vision/Functional vision, and Ocular Health
2. What is emmetropia and when does it occur? - ANSWER It is normal
vision and occurs when the light passes through both the cornea and lens to
focus light on the retina
3. What is hyperopia and when does it occur? - ANSWER It is
farsightedness and occurs when the light passes through both the cornea
and the lens to focus light behind the retina
4. what is myopia and when does it occur? - ANSWER it is nearsightedness
and occurs when the eye's focusing power is too strong and focuses light in
front of the retina
5. What is the retina? - ANSWER It is the imaging surface of the eye
6. What is the cornea - ANSWER It is the clear front surface of the eye
,7. What is the pupil and what is located directly behind it? - ANSWER It is
the aperture (opening) of the iris; the lens is located immediately behind
the pupil
8. When do refractive errors result? - ANSWER They result when light
entering the eye doesn't focus on the retina
9. What do eye care providers use to correct refractive errors? - ANSWER
Optical aids such as spectacles and contact lenses or surgical procedures
such as LASIK
10.What is asthenopia? - ANSWER It is eyestrain and can result from
functional vision disorders
11.What are dysfunctions of the vergence and accommodative systems called?
- ANSWER functional vision disorders, binocular vision disorders and
near point disorders
12.What are the symptoms caused by functional vision disorders? When do
they occur? - ANSWER They include asthenopia, headache, blurry vision
double vision, tired eyes, feeling tired during periods of reading, avoidance
of near activities or dislike of reading. They typically occur during or after
periods of near work.
,13.In what populations do accommodative disorders have a high prevalance? -
ANSWER in the pediatric population
14.What must the eyes do to see clearly and comfortable while looking at close
objects? - ANSWER They must work together. They must be pointed at
the same object and the focusing system should work accurately and for
prolonged periods of time.
15.What can result in eye health problems? - ANSWER A problem with the
anatomical structure of the eye or a systemic medical condition that affects
the eye
16.What is an example of a problem with anatomic structure of the lens? -

-develop DDx to develop list of possible causes for the patient's symptoms
-determine which additional test to pursue to identify cause of chief complaint
22.What component of a comprehensive exam are screening tests? What
information do they provide? - ANSWER They give general info re:
Pt's Visual System
They screen different functions of the eye to preliminarily determine if each
component is functioning properly. They can be performed by either the
doctor, or a trained assistant.
23.What are some examples of screening tests? - ANSWER Visual Acuity
Color Vision
Stereopsis
Pupil Training
Confrontational Visual Field (CVF)
Extraocular Muscles (EOM
Cover Test (CT)
24.What does visual acuity measure? - ANSWER The resolving ability of the
eye.
