Q

-Depends on the tone of the ciliary body
Strongly controlled by convergence and fusion
-Darkness removes the appreciation of blur
-Somewhat controlled by the shift of spectral sensitivity and chromatic aberration
-“Standby” position of the lens in the dark
-Night myopia or empty field myopia

Q
  • Also known as relative accommodation
  • As the convergence angle is changed, the accommodation must increase to see a target nearer and nearer
  • Ratio of Convergence Accommodative to -convergence: CA/C
  • Low illumination and low CA/C ratio are strong drivers for near work induced myopia*

is which kind of accomodation:

A)Reflex accommodation
B)Tonic Accommodation
C)Convergence-Accommodation
D)Psychic or Near Accommodation

17
Q

When measuring accommodation you use (minus/plus) lenses to induce accommodation

A

minus

18
Q

When measuring accommodation you use (plus/minus) lenses to relax accommodation

A

plus

19
Q

(lead/lag) is slighly more than is needed when measuring accuracy of accommodation

A

lead

20
Q

(lag/lead) is slighly less than is needed when measuring accuracy of accommodation

A

lag

A

T

24
Q

T/F in donders table there is a increase in amplitude of accommodation with increase in age

A

F There is a decrease in amplitude of accommodation with increase in age

25

26
Q

Hofstetter’s formuli

is the _(average/maximum/minimum)__ expected accommodative amplitude:18.5-(0.30)(age)

A

Average

27
Q
  • average expected accommodative amplitude
  • Maximum expected accommodative Amplitude
  • Minimum expected accommodative amplitude

a.18.5-(0.30)(age)
b.15-(0.25)(age)
c.25-(0.40)(age)
match them to correct formula

A

Maximum expected accommodative Amplitude= 25-(0.40)(age)
Minimum expected accommodative amplitude= 15-(0.25)(age)
Average expected accommodative amplitude= 18.5-(0.30)(age)

Q

when using +/- 2.00 flipper you want to note how many ____ per minute the pt can see (with/wihtout) blur

A

cycles, without

31
Q

If less than 8cpm with flipper of +/-2.00 that the pt can see without blur you want to repeat test(binocularly/monocularly)

A

33
Q

Inability to relax from the accommodative lead, some of which is experienced by the patient as an interference with distance vision

37
Q

-The lag is abnormally high
- e.g. 5D accommodation is required, yet 4D is the accommodative response (less)
(1/5=.20 1/4= .25)

-The response is reduced for the patient’s age

  • Clearing additional minus power at near is difficult for this patient
  • -describes what accommodative (excess/spasm/insufficiency)
A

Accommodative Insufficiency

38
Q

Abnormally high lead, e.g. 5D accommodation required, yet the accommodative response is (more) 5.75D.
Usually seen in younger patients.
Clearing additional plus lens power is difficult for this patient.

A

Accommodative Excess
