Optics for Optometry Students

Introduction of this new subject of optometry in the curriculum necessitates to

understand its technology and different optical instruments that are used as visual aids

and for accurate measurements of normal and defective human vision what are the new

dimensions to eye care techniques. This book provides an up-to-date knowledge in

different phenomena relating to optics. It covers aberrometry and wavefront technology,

refraction at a plane and spherical surface, chromatic aberration, optical fibre, lenses

and their varieties, light, wave light and simple harmonic, motion, holography,

defraction and polarization of light coherence, laser, photometry, spectroscopy, the

velocity of light and its importance, viscosity and fluid motion, contact lenses, etc.

Includes many recent techniques of refractive errors and surgery of the eye. Incorporate

skillfully the theory and art of practice of optics and refraction. Its text is so well

organized that helps to understand, retain and reproduce facts easily. Provides a detailed

study on action of the eye and response of eye to light color formation of image, far

and near. This book is a complete current and perfect reference to study and understand

and treat disorders of eye. Most of the disorders encountered in the clinic are covered

with their signs and symptoms and procedures to treat visual disorders. Intimates on

silicone hydro gels disposable lenses, guides to fitting, evaluating and trouble shooting

contact lenses, disposable lenses and care systems as well as on clinical topics such as

bifocals.
