Opthalmology instruments

Lecturer:

Ján Lešták (gar.)

Tutor:

Richard Baštecký

Supervisor:

Department of medical branches and humanities

Synopsis:

Functional principles of different diagnostic and therapeutic ophthalmic devices will be discussed. Students will be able to test most of machines during practical lessons at clinical department. Overview, physical principles, technical construction and parameters of following devices and methods will be studied: slit lamp, ophthalmoscope (direct and indirect, confocal scanning), retinoscope, refractometer, tonometer, campimeter, Heidelberg retinal tomograph, optical coherence tomography, retinal nerve fibre layer analysis (GDx), specular (endothelial) microscope, devices for subjective investigation of astigmatism, devices for investigation of ocular movements, corneal topohraphs, testing of refractive balance, eikonometer, POLA-test, ortopic machines, Hertel exophthalmometer, devices for color vision testing.

Requirements:

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Basic principles of eye diagnostics. Basic instruments and tools in ophthalmologic practice I (optotypes, slit lamp)

2. Basic instruments and tools in ophthalmologic practice II (direct and indirect opthalmoscopy, tonometry).

3. Instruments and methods for refraction examination (autorefractometer, skiascopy, Hartinger coincidence refractometer, Plusoptix, wavefront aberrometry) - basic principles

4. Instruments for cornea examination I (keratometer, corneal topography, pachymetry)

5. Instruments for cornea examination II (Scheimpflug principle, specular microscope)

6. Instruments for examination of optical nerve and visual field (HRT, GDx, perimetry)

7. Instruments for examination of retina (OCT, RTA), funduscamera, fluorescence angiography

8. Ultrasound in ophthalmology, ultrabiomicroscopy

9. Instruments for examination of oculomotoric functions and binocular vision
