Feedback

A Hyphema includes hemorrhage in the anterior chamber and is not a refractive

disorder.

B Astigmatism is caused by an abnormal curvature of the cornea or lens.

C Amblyopia is a problem of reduced visual acuity not correctable by refraction.

D Myopic patients have the ability to see near objects more clearly than those at a distance; it is
caused by the image focusing beyond the retina.

2. A 10-year-old patient is talking to the nurse about wanting to try contact lenses instead of
wearing glasses. She states that the other children at her school call her “four-eyes.” Contact lenses
should be prescribed for a child who is

a. At least 12 years of age

b. Able to read all the written information and instructions

c. Able to independently care for the lenses in a responsible manner

d. Confident that she really wants contact lenses

ANS: C



Feedback

A Chronologic age is not the major determinant. A responsible 10-year-old child

might be permitted to wear contact lenses.

B The ability to read does not indicate understanding of the instructions.

C The child must be able to care for the lenses independently. Serious eye damage

can occur with irresponsible use of contact lenses.

3. Which statement best describes how a cataract affects a child’s vision?



a. It increases intraocular pressure.

b. It alters the ability to distinguish between colors.

d. It prevents a clear image from forming on the retina.

ANS: D



Feedback

A Coughing, straining, or vomiting can increase intraocular pressure

postoperatively.

B Nystagmus and strabismus are clinical signs of a cataract. Color deficiency is not

a sign.

C A cataract usually does not cause double vision.

D A cataract is an opacity of the lens or loss of transparency of the lens.
