Synopsis:

During the lectures, students deepen their theoretical knowledge and practical skills of subjective refraction with the test frames and test sets of glasses. Further tests will follow on binocular balance, practice working with phoropter and other techniques.

Syllabus of lectures:

1.Hypermetropia, myopia, best sphere

2.Astigmatism, Jackson's cross cylinder

3. Dissociation, dissociation tests

4. Tests of binocular (accommodative) balance

5.Ocular dominance, monovision

6.Phoropter - the benefits of working with phoropter

7.Anisometropia, aniseikonia

8.Accommodation, disorders of accommodation

9.Convergence, disorders of convergence

10. Binocular examination of astigmatism

Study Objective:

Course subjective refraction II. is designed to give a comprehensive view of subjective refraction examinations and practical mastery. The goal is to providing theoretical assumptions and practical training of subjective refraction measurement with an emphasis on binocular accommodative tests and mastering techniques for near and intermediate distance.
