Randal Hanson for multiple days and gained insight into the daily life of an optometrist in private practice. I received hands on training regarding regular eye exams, contact lens fitting, Keratoconus, macular degeneration, retinal detachments, Glaucoma, Visual Field tests, among much more. However, my favorite experience was being able to operate the Optical Coherence Technology (OCT) machine and see the actual cross sections

muscles around the iris react to light in the room and cause the iris to open or close around the pupil.” “After light travels to the lens, through the pupil.” “After passing through the lens, the light that initially bounced off the screen reaches the light-sensing rod and cone cells

the peripheral capsular bag equator as well as the capsulorhexis edge. In this way, the retractors are able to mimic and act as artificial zonules to stabilize the entire bag during phacoemulsification and cortical cleanup without hindering cortical lens material aspiration. I have found this has not been the case when previously using capsular tension rings as the retractors allow me to get the required support vitally needed in the anterior-posterior direction and not trap the

The microscope is an instrument permitting the visual observation of small objects or object details usually indistinguishable to the naked eye. There are two types of microscopes: Light microscopes, and electron microscopes. Light microscopes utilizes optical lenses to form the image by controlling the light beam for illuminating the sample. An electron microscope is a type of microscope that uses an electron particle beam for illuminating a sample and create a greatly enlarged image. In this laboratory

athermalizing a lens system with only one metal by James Wu, jamesw@optics.arizona.edu, ywuumme99@excite.com Figure 1 shows a typical opto-mechanical design for athermalizing a lens system using two metals with dissimilar CTE’s. However, with the vast numbers of glasses to choose from, an athermal technique using only one metal as the metering structure is presented. A look-up table is provided for choosing the glass combinations that yield βlens = αmetal. Introduction In designing a lens system,

Compound Microscopes: Me A compound light microscope is a microscope consisting of two convex lens, which are also known as the objective and the eyepiece. That are on two opposite ends of an adjustable tube. It is also known as a bright field microscope because it contains its own light source. Stereo/Dissecting Microscopes: Me A stereo “Stare-io” microscope has a low magnification power, and it uses two separate eyepieces with two objectives, which creates the visual effect of depth perception

Effect of Eye Illumination on Pupillary Response Results: When the unobserved eye was illuminated, the pupil diameter in the observed eye had become smaller in response in comparison to when both eyes were in the ambient condition. The pupil diameter of the observed eye was smaller when both eyes were illuminated in comparison to the diameter it had when only the unobserved eye was illuminated. As seen in Figure 1, the diameter of the pupils was the greatest when the eyes were in the ambient condition

You want to use a convex lense to start a fire because when light is being refracted through a concave lense it tends to diverge the light, so it basically separates the refracted light and makes them go in different directions without joining together. On the other hand, when you shine light through a convex lense the light converges and focuses in one spot. In other words, the refracted light is not parallel when it shines through a convex lense. Therefore, you would need to use a convex lense
