Lecturer of Ophthalmology- MNF- Egypt
FRCS (Glasgow)- FICO
Former Fellow of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Adult Strabismus- Stein Eye Institute- UCLA- USA
Equations – Problem Solving
1. Biometry (SRK formula…etc) 7. Amplitude of Accommodation
2. Keratometer 8. Presbyopia
3. Spectacle Power- Contac Lens 9. Retinsocopy
(vertex distance change) 10.Components of hypermetropia
4. Prentice rule (Definition of each and How to calculate)
5. Transposition
6. AC/A ratio
Spectacle -14.00 D
Dc= Ds/1-dDs VD= 13 mm
-14/1- (0.013X-14) = -11.84 → -12.00D

A patient is fully corrected with +10.00 D spectacles at a vertex distance of 10 mm.


What power soft contact lens will probably be required?
Presbyopia
Near Correction= Far correction + [(100/Working Distance) – (2/3 x Amplitude of Accommodation)]
Amplitude of Accommodation= 100/ Near Point in cm
Hypermetropia
A patient requires +1.00 D to see at distance. Manifest refraction reveals
she will tolerate up to +2.00 D. Cycloplegic refraction is +5.00D sphere.
What are the components of hypermetropia??

Manifest hyperopia
a) Maximum plus correction the eye can
accept without blurring of vision
b) Non-cyclopleged
Latent hyperopia
a) Cycloplegic hyperopia (Total)- Manifest
Absolute hyperopia
a) Minimum plus correction required for
clear vision at distance
b) Non-cyclopleged
Facultative hyperopia
Manifest - Absolute
Keratometer SRK I
n2-n1/r (m) P= A – [2.5 x L] - [0.9 x K]
1.3375-1=0.33375
… → 337.5 in order to leave r in mm
e.g. r= 7.5 mm K= 45D
Before leaving for a scuba diving trip in Hawaii, you pack a +20.0D glass lens in your suitcase.
While scuba diving you decide to use your lens to get a closer look at the scales of a most interesting fish.
What is the power of the +20.00 lens under water. Assume you are holding an ideal thin lens
D air/D water= +20.00/?= nIOL- n air/nIOL- n water
1.52-1/1.52-1.33= +7.3 D
Magnifiaction= D/4= 7.3/4= 1.8X
Problem Solving Examples
Presbyopic Correction
Near point is 20 cm
+2.00 D Hypermetrope. Near point 40 cm. WD 33 cm. Amplitude= near- far
Near: 100/20= 5 D
Amplitude of Accommodation = 100/near point = 100/40 = 2.5
Keep 1/3 as a Reserve = (2.5 x 1/3) = 0.75 D Patient A: Emmetrope
Amplitude: 5-0= 5 D
The Remaining = 2.5 - 0.75 = 1.75 D
He want to read at 33 cm → Needs 3 D Patient B: Myope
uncorrected - 2.00
Add = Needed – Remaining = 3 - 1.75= 1.25
Amplitude: 5-2= 3
Near correction = +2.00 + 1.25= 3.25
Patient C :
Hypermetrope
Spectacle Conversion to Contact Lens uncorrected +2.00
10 D spectacle / 10 mm vertex distance Amplitude: 5+2= 7
Contact lens power = Dc = Ds/1-dDs
-10/ 1- (10/1000) x -10= -9.00 D
