B015508 - OPTICS FOR VISION

Italian

Knolewdge acquired: learn about the problems of various types of ophthalmic lenses and orient itself to the most appropriate choice in relation to the Visual problem.
Provide basic tools to conduct an examination, to prescribe the refractive correction taking into account the binocular vision and its alterations.
Analyzing some special medical conditions and prescribe optometric correction.


Competence acquired
be able, after choosing the lens to use, perform properly detecting the necessary parameters for the preparation of optical aid and the necessary controls for proper operation.






Skills acquired (at the end of the course)
knowing how to handle properly, from a technical point of view, the choice of optical aid in relation to the problem of vision in relation to the work environment and the needs of the user. Be able to relate with the user of optical aid by providing appropriate directions for its intended use.
To provide the basics of lighting, to know what is light, what are the tools to generate it and the parameters that characterize them. Photometry and Radiometry. Basic concept of Colorimetry.

Anisometropia - Aniseiconia – Optical anisoforia and its compensation with ophthalmic lenses.
Bifocal lenses- Trifocal lenses.
Progressive lenses - Lenses personalized progressive - Lenses for specific tasks - filtering lenses - lenses filter selective for eye
