Care of the Patient with Myopia : Clinical Practice Guideline OPTOMETRY: OPTOMETRIC CLINICAL THE PRIMARY EYE CARE PROFESSION PRACTICE GUIDELINE Doctors of optometry are independent primary health care providers who examine, diagnose, treat, and manage diseases and disorders of the visual system, the eye, and associated structures as well as diagnose related systemic conditions. Optometrists provide more than two-thirds of the primary eye care services in the United States. They are more widely distributed geographically than other eye care providers and are readily accessible for the delivery of eye and vision care services. There are approximately 32,000 full-time equivalent doctors of optometry currently in practice in the United States. Optometrists practice in more than 7,000 communities across the United States, serving as the sole primary eye care provider in Care of the Patient with more than 4,300 communities. The mission of the profession of optometry is to fulfill the vision and eye Myopia care needs of the public through clinical care, research, and education, all of which enhance the quality of life.

This Optometric Clinical Practice Guideline for the Care of the Patient with Myopia describes appropriate examination and treatment procedures for myopia and contains recommendations for diagnosis and management of myopia. This Guideline will assist optometrists in achieving the following goals: • Accurately diagnose the different types of myopia • Improve the quality of care rendered to patients with myopia • Inform and educate parents, patients, and other health care practitioners about the options of correction, control, or reduction of myopia • Decrease visual morbidity related to higher degrees of myopia. Introduction 3 4 Myopia I. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM distance visual acuity. Degenerative myopia, also called pathological myopia, is due to the development of structural defects in the posterior Myopia is the refractive anomaly of the eye in which the conjugate focus segment of the eye. Induced myopia may be viewed as a secondary of the retina is at some finite point in front of the eye, when the eye is not myopia that is pathologic in nature, i.e., some external agent or alteration accommodating. It can also be described as the refractive condition in of normal physiological function has induced the myopia, which is often which parallel light rays from an object at optical infinity are focused by temporary. (See Appendix Figure 3 for ICD-9-CM classification codes the eye in front of the retina, with accommodation relaxed. Myopia is for myopia.) derived from the term

  • Sightsavers Policy on Recycled Spectacles
    DRAFT POSITION PAPER ADJUSTABLE SPECTACLES Position statement There are an estimated 670 million cases of blindness or vision impairment (153 million people with impaired far visioni and 517 million people with impaired near visionii) simply because they are unable to access an appropriate eye examination and spectacles. Far vision impairment alone costs $269billion a year in lost productivity.iii The massive volume of cases, and consequent scale of disability and economic impact caused by uncorrected refractive error (URE) has lead to various attempts to provide short-cut refractive care. Adjustable spectacles, with the optical power either set in an eye examination or self-adjusted, have been promoted by several companies and organizations as a potential solution.iv IAPB recognises the good intentions behind these short-cuts and spectacle technology but advises that its members and other parties engaged in promoting eye health should exercise caution with or avoid adjustable spectacles at this time. In deciding whether and how to use adjustable spectacles in future, the following areas should be considered. Considerations Sustainability It is critical that refractive services are provided in a manner that contributes to affordable, high quality eye care for all patients irrespective of social standing. Isolated provision of spectacles is detrimental to the human resources and service delivery systems that are necessary for sustainable eye care services, and so should be avoided whenever possible. • Adjustable spectacles that are affordable, comfortable, cosmetically acceptable and optically accurate may have a role contributing to sustainability when used by trained personnel within the recognised service delivery system of the jurisdiction • Adjustable spectacles used in a way (e.g.

  • Introduction the Human
    Physics 1CL ·OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS AND THE EYE SPRING 2010 Introduction Most of the subject material in this lab can be found in Chapter 25 of Serway and Faughn. In this lab, you will make images of images using lenses and the optical bench (Experiment A). IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU READ CHAPTER 25 BEFORE COMING TO LAB! You will study your own eye as an optical instrument and measure the distance on your retina from the fovea to the “blind spot” (Experiment B). You will also study a model of the eye, and examine the ability of the lens to bring an object into focus at different distances. You will examine how an abnormal eyeball causes blurred vision and how to correct this (Experiment C). There is only one station with the model of the human eye. Whenever that station becomes available, take a few minutes at that station to perform Experiment C. The Human Eye The figure shows a cross section of a human eye. Light is refracted at the surface of the cornea, and is refracted again as it passes through the “crystalline” lens. In a normal eye, light is perfectly focused on the receptors in the retina where signals are generated in nerve fibers and transmitted to the brain. An inverted image is formed on the retina, but the brain “expects” this as normal and is wired to recognize this as normal. Unless you are studying details of the function of the eye, we can consider it to be a single lens (where the focal length can be varied), and a fixed distance from the lens to the retina where we would prefer to make sharply focused images.

  • Article • a Case Series in Optometric Management of Diverse Vertical
    Article • A Case Series in Optometric Management of Diverse Vertical Deviations Darah McDaniel-Chandler, OD • Southern College of Optometry Memphis, Tennessee ABSTRACT Background: Vertical deviations present in diverse patient populations with a multitude of puzzling symptoms and complaints. Many patients with vertical deviations have visited numerous doctors looking for an explanation for their symptoms of dizziness, headaches, motion sickness, and double vision. Vertical deviations may be apparent in the clinical optometric exam sequence, but at other times, additional testing must be performed to uncover a vertical heterophoria, including fixation disparity, vertical vergences, a period of diagnostic occlusion, or Maddox rod. Case Report: Three case reports are reviewed with diverse presentations of vertical deviations. The first case report outlines Patient A, a 51-year-old female who presented with dizziness along with a latent hyperphoria that was not apparent on the initial clinical examination. The second case report outlines Patient B, a 52-year-old female who presented with a longstanding large-angle vertical strabismus with strabismic amblyopia in the right eye. The third case report outlines Patient C, a 61-year-old female who presented with intermittent vertical diplopia following a cerebrovascular accident. The three cases all underwent vision therapy or vision therapy in combination with prismatic correction, and all three cases experienced symptom reduction following treatment with optometric vision rehabilitation.

Given the complexity of the eye, ocular tissues are finely organized and orchestrated. In the last few years, many in vitro models have been developed in order to meet the 3Rs principle (Replacement, Reduction and Refinement) for eye toxicity testing. This procedure is highly necessary to ensure that the risks associated with ophthalmic products meet appropriate safety criteria. In vitro preclinical testing is now a well-established practice of significant importance for evaluating the efficacy and safety of cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and nutraceutical products. Along with in vitro testing, also computational procedures, herein described, for evaluating the pharmacological profile of potential ocular drug candidates including their toxicity, are in rapid expansion. In this review, the ocular cell types and functionality are described, providing an overview about the scientific challenge for the development of three-dimensional (3D) in vitro models.

  • Do You Know Your Eye Care Jargon? an OPTOMETRIST
    Do you know your eye care jargon? Optometrists, Orthoptists and Opthalmologists all work in the field of eye care and often work as a team in the same practice. These various professional “categories” can cause quite a lot of confusion though. Not only do they sound similarbut some of their roles can overlap, thus making the differentiation even harder. One great example is that all these experts can recommend glasses. In this article, I will aim to overview the role of each specialty and so make it easier to identify who does what! The levels of training and what they are permitted to do for youas a patientare an important differentiator between these specialties. It will definitely help you make the best-informed decision when looking for help regarding your specific eye care issue. AN OPTOMETRIST In South Africa, Optometrists need to complete a four-year Bachelor of Optometry degree before they are permitted to practice. Once qualified, they provide vital primary vision care. They conduct vision tests and eye examinations on patients in order to detect visual errors, such as near-sightedness, long-sightedness and astigmatism. Optometrists also do testing to determine the patient's ability to focus and coordinate their eyes, judge depth perception, and see colors accurately. Once a visual „problem‟ has been identified andanalyzed, the optometristeffectively corrects them and their related problems, by providing comfortable glasses and or contact lenses. They are also responsible for the maintenance of these “devices”. Optometrists also play an important role in the diagnosis and rehabilitation of patients suffering from Low-vision.
