Angular Mag Formula

AM = qL/1 - dL'

Linear Mag

M = L/L'


h' = h x L/L'


thick: h' = h x L1/L1' x L2/L2'

Nom and Max Mag

F/4


F/4 +1

Telescope Mag formula

M = -Fe/Fo

Lens Cap and Total Mag

Fcap/4 x -Fe/Fo

SI and SSI registration groups

Which form is used for the registration of SI and SSI pxs?

Certificate of Vision Impairment (CVI)

Vergence arriving at the eye

l2 = l1' - d


1/l2 = L2

Advantages of dv telescopes

Only realistic option for Dv mag


Good depth of field


Can be hands free


Only practical solution for long inter wd


Can be mono/bin


Variable focus

Disadvantages of dv telescopes

High cost


Difficult to use


Extensive training


Very poor FOV


Heavy


Conspicuous device

Markings: 8x20x7.5

8 = magnification


20 = objective diameter


7.5 = field of view (°)

Rules of thumb

Spec mounted mag: 1 base in for every dioptre of object to lens distance. For emmetrope, 1 base in for every dioptre



High add: 1 base in for every dioptre of addition over +3.00



High add bifocals: 1mm inset for every dioptre of addition

What is nominal Mag?

Special case of angular mag


Only achieved when object placed at 1st principle focus


Image is formed at infinity

How can nominal mag be derived from angular mag principles?

AM = qL/1-dL'



l = f


L = -F


l' = infinity


L' = 0



Mnom = -0.25 × -F/1 - (d x 0)


Mnom = -0.25 x -F


Mnom = F/4

Benefits to being registered sight impaired

Additional income support


DLA or PIP


Additional housing benefit or council tax allowance


Provision of low vision aids


50% reduction in TV license fee


Free NHS sight test


Car park concessions


Access to attendance allowance

10 members a DO can refer a px to to provide support

Social services


Social worker


Therapist


Rehabilitation officer


Mobility officer


Local low vision clinic


Local charities


Local council


Diasbled employment advisor


Educational advisory teams

What is luminous efficacy?

The measure of how well a light source produces visible light

Define Luminous intensity, luminous flux and illuminance and state a unit for each

Luminous intensity is the strength of a light source in a given direction and is measured in candela (cd)



Luminous flux is the rate of flow of light energy from a source and is measured in lumens (lm)



Illuminance is the measure of the luminous flux density at a point on a surface and is measured in lux.

Define Luminous intensity, luminous flux and illuminance and state a unit for each

Luminous intensity is the strength of a light source in a given direction and is measured in candela (cd)



Luminous flux is the rate of flow of light energy from a source and is measured in lumens (lm)



Illuminance is the measure of the luminous flux density at a point on a surface and is measured in lux.

Angular Mag thick lenses

qL1L2/L1' x (1-dL2')

Define terms linear mag and angular mag

Linear mag: given by m = height of image/height of object = h'/h



Angular mag: AM = angle subtended at eye by virtual image/angle subtended at unaided eye by object at RSD

What is maximum mag?

When the image formed by the magnifier lies at the RSD and the eye to lens distance is zero

FE formula (thick lenses)

FE = F1 + F2 - t/n x F1 x F2
