GLASS PRESCRIPTION AMONG YOUNGS AND EDUCATE ELDERLY ABOUT PROGRESSIVE LENSESDR. AMARENDRA KUMARM.S
WHY WE PRESCRIBE GLASSES Majority of patients in our opd comes with complaints of
VISUAL SYMPTOMS
OCULAR SYMPTOMS
REFFERED SYMPTOMS
• BLURRED VISSION• DIPLOPIA• CONFUSION
• HEADACHE
• ASTHENOPIA• EYE STRAIN• OCULAR IRRITATION• PAIN• In child intractable
blepharitis and conjunctivitis
GLASS PRESCRIPTIONHYPEROPIA Age Fogging Refinement methods1. Less than 3yrs ------- Full Correction2. 3 to 8yrs -------------- depends on tropia or phoria3. Adults to follow rule of strongest+ MYOPIA1. Thumb rules
Full Gross Value
subjective to AC/A
Full net--- optimal,
undercorrection
Normal Patients• -1to -6 full
correction• >-6 undercorrect
Esotropia• -6 DS or Above
under correct to optimal
Exotropia• Over correct
in intmittent Exotropia
GLASS PRESCRIPTION ASTIGMATISM
Normal Patients: In child less than 3 yrs of age = 1.25DS regular: Older than 3 yrs. = all astigmatism should be corrected Child and young : followed up 6 monthly Adults : 6 month to yearly Frequent changes : over correct (0.25D) Every patients suspected of refractive error should be checkeked Dry
and Wet AR For >5yrs Tropicacyl Plus every 10 min upto 30 min AR rechecked after
40 to 60 min For 3-5 yrs Atropine sulphate ointment tds for 3days AR rechecked
after 3days Cyclopentolate may be other option in little childs
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN VISUAL ACUITY AND REFRACTIVE ERRORSnellens Visual
AcuityUncorrected Spherical Errors(DS)
Uncorrected Cylindrical Error(DC)
6/6 <=0.25 <=0.25
6/9 0.50 1.0
6/12 0.75 1.5
6/18 1.0 2.0
6/24 1.5 3.0
6/36 2.0 4.0
6/60 2.0-3.0 >=5.0
SOME COMMON DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ADULTS AND CHILDRENCHILDREN < 5YRS ADULTS
* Give refraction on axis as refracted
* Give cyl close to 90 or 180 degree
* Full hyperopic cycloplegic refraction tolerated well if less than age 5yrs
* Maximum tolerated plus even in refractive accommodative esotropia
* Subjective manifest refraction less important
* Subjective manifest refraction important
SOME COMMON DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ADULTS AND CHILDRENCHILDREN < 5YRS ADULTS
* Tolerate anisometropia; give full regardless of age, strabismus, amblyopia
* Tolerate anisometropia poorly
* < 12yrs non wearing or wearing wrong prescription will affect eye health
* Non wearing or wearing wrong prescription have only minor temporary consequences
# amblyopia, deviation, loss binocularity
# asthenopia, red eye, dry eye
SOME COMMON DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ADULTS AND CHILDRENCHILDREN < 5YRS ADULTS
* Tolerate aneisokonia better but also considered an implement to fusion and has amblyopia potential
* Tolerate aneisokonia poorly
* Anisometric Rx, Aneisokonic spectacle Rx has a role especially in patients requiring occlusion
* Will not wear Rx that has a large difference in refraction between the 2 eyes(threshold ? Different from patient to patient)
SOME EXAMPLES We prescribe Spherical power on the basis of Wet AR Cylindrical power on the basis of dry AR For AR under TP we reduce 0.75

PROGRESSIVE ADDITION LENSES When the near point has receded beyond the distance at which the individual is
accustomed to read or to work is known as presbyopia in Latin old man’s eyes. Decrease in amplitude of accommodation with age Increase in near point of accommodation with age Progressive spectacle lenses, also called progressive addition
lenses (PAL),progressive power lenses, graduated prescription lenses, and varifocal or multifocal lenses, are corrective lenses used in eyeglasses to correct presbyopia and other disorders of accommodation.
Progressive lenses more closely mimic the natural vision that you enjoyed before the onset of presbyopia. Instead of providing just two lens powers like bifocals (or three, like trifocals), progressive lenses are true "multifocal" lenses that provide a smooth, seamless progression of many lens powers for clear vision across the room, up close and at all distances in between.

PROGRESSIVE LENS (NO-LINE BIFOCAL)VS.LINE BIFOCAL Advantages No sudden “image jump” from distance to near. An infinite number of focal points to view objects at different distances. No visible line where the bifocal power begins. More natural vision for near viewing. A variety of lens designs to fit virtually any application. Disadvantages Requires a short period of adaptation to progressive lens for first-time wearers. Peripheral Distortion: Progressive lenses suffer the disadvantage of the power
progression creating regions of astigmatic aberration away from the optic axis, yielding poor visual resolution.
Costs more than a regular bifocal.
CONTD. Useful for long Computer user also protect from computer vision
syndrome Can be prescribe comfortably to myopic with presbiopia Better lens materials. Today's progressive lenses are available in
all the latest lens materials, making them thinner, lighter and more comfortable than ever before. Progressives made of high-index plastic lens materials can be up to 50 percent thinner than standard plastic bifocals.
Today, many progressive lenses have compact designs specially made for smaller eyeglass frames. With these new designs, wearers with small faces or anyone who wants a smaller, fashionable frame can enjoy all the benefits of progressive lenses.
