Questions and Answers 100% Accurate
Where is the best vision in the progressive lens? - ANSWER-corridor (even though

Which of the following is NOT true:
a) prism bends light
b) prism changes the vergence
c) prism doesn't change the clarity of the image
d) prism has prismatic power - ANSWER-b) because prism does NOT change the
vergence
light moves towards the _______ and image moves towards the __________
a) base; apex
b) base; base
c) apex; base - ANSWER-a) base; apex

What is a prism diopter? - ANSWER-The amount of prism needed to divert a ray of light
1 cm from its original path measured 1 m distance
What is the location that the prism is prescribed in single vision lenses?
a) fitting cross
b) distance reference point
c) prism reference point - ANSWER-c) prism reference point (PRP/MRP)
What is prentice's rule? - ANSWER-prism diopters= decentration (cm)* lens power
(the power used in this equation is the power in the meridian that the patient is looking
in)
Reasons to prescribe prism
a)strabismus
b) phoria/tropia
c) both a and b - ANSWER-c) both
When does unwanted prism occur? - ANSWER-when the lab de-centers incorrectly and

power

-vertical eye movement without having to change head position due to image jump
How do you line up the PRP with PD? - ANSWER-first decenter the lens so that the OC
