5 Questions
What are the two most important components of the visual pattern?
- Accommodative pattern – ability of the eye to see clearly
- Convergence pattern – provides mechanism for maintaining single vision
What are probe bodies used for in the investigation of the visual pattern?
Probe bodies (lenses and prisms) are used to investigate the extent and degree of intensity of the relationship between the accommodative and convergence patterns.
What is the effect of plus lenses on the accommodative pattern?
Plus lenses inhibit/relax accommodation, make the light more convergent, and magnify the image.
What is the effect of minus lenses on the accommodative pattern?
Minus lenses stimulate accommodation, make the light less convergent, and minify the image.
What is the effect of base-in prisms on the convergence pattern?
Base-In prisms inhibit convergence and move the eyes away from the object of regard.
Test your knowledge on visual patterns and their two most important components: accommodative pattern and convergence pattern. This quiz will assess your understanding of the relationship between these patterns and their role in maintaining clear and single vision. Get ready to probe your knowledge!
