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:

The examination consists of a written test and an oral examination. Answers to the questions are scored according to difficulty. The overall mark of the examination corresponds to the applicable grading scale. If the result of any part is graded F, the result of the examination is automatically F.

Syllabus of lectures:

1. Magnifying aids (magnifiers, binoculars) and operating microscopes

2. Basic principles of examination of the human eye. Basic instruments used in everyday ophthalmic practice I (optotypes, slit lamp)

3. Basic instruments used in everyday ophthalmic practice II (direct and indirect ophthalmoscope, tonometers).

4. Instruments and methods for examining refractive state

5. Aberrometry, measurement of aberrations of the eye

6. Instruments used to examine the cornea I (keratometry, corneal topography)

7. Instruments used for corneal examination II (corneal pachymetry, endothelial microscope)

8. Instruments used for examination of the optic nerve papilla, retinal nerve fiber layer and visual field examination (HRT, GDx, perimetry)

9. Instruments used to examine the retinal layers (OCT, RTA), retinal camera, fluorescence angiography

10. Ultrasound in ophthalmology, ultrabiomicroscopy, ultrasound and optical biometry of the eye.

11. Instruments for the investigation of oculomotor functions and binocular vision

12. Instruments for the examination of colour vision

13. Laser systems in ophthalmology I

14. Laser systems in ophthalmology II
