1. Refraction Test

An e$$etropic eye is naturally in optimal ocusor distance vision+

An a$etropic eye .myopia! hyperopia! or

astigmatism/ needs corrective lenses to be in

proper ocus or distance+

 'his optical abnormality is called re%ractiveerror

Re%raction is the procedure by which any

reractive error is characteri0ed and quanti&ed )eraction is oten necessary to distinguish

between blurred vision caused by reractive error

or by medical abnormalities o the visual system

 'he Schrimer test is a simple method for assessing

gross tear production Schirmer strips are disposable 35-

mm-length dry strips of filter paper 

 The tip of one end is folded at the

 preexisting notch so that it can

drape over the lower lid margin justlateral to the cornea

Tears in the conjunctival sac will

cause progressive wetting of the

 paper strip

The distance between the leadingedge of wetness and the initial fold

can be measured after 5 minutes

using a millimeter ruler.

2. Exophthalmometry A method is needed to

measure theanteroposterior location othe globe with respect tothe bony orbital rim

discrete! easily palpablelandmar2 and is used as thereerence point

typically ranges rom to< mm! and the two eyemeasurements are normallywithin mm o each other

Abnormal protrusion o one or both eyes iscalled proptosis (or exophthalmos). Proptosisis caused by an increased mass in the orbitbehind the globe. Because the bony orbit isrigid, any increase in the volume of itscontents will push the globe forward.
