Question 1
A patient with simple myopia is corrected with a thin spectacle lens of power -5.00 D situated at a back vertex distance of 12 mm from the corneal apex. If the patient is to be fitted with a contact lens placed directly on the cornea, what is the required contact lens power?
Correct Answer:
-4.72 D
Question 2
During streak retinoscopy performed at a working distance of 67 cm (requiring a +1.50 D working distance lens), an ophthalmologist observes a 'with' motion along the 90° meridian neutralized by a +3.50 D trial lens, and a 'with' motion along the 180° meridian neutralized by a +5.00 D trial lens in the trial frame. What is the patient's net refractive error in plus cylinder notation?
Correct Answer:
+2.00 DS / +1.50 DC x 90°
Question 3
A patient wears right spectacle lens correction of +4.00 DS. When looking 5 mm downward and 3 mm outward (temporal) through the lens relative to its optical center, what prismatic effect is induced according to Prentice's rule?
Correct Answer:
2.0 prism diopters base-up and 1.2 prism diopters base-out
Question 4
When refining the astigmatic axis using a Jackson cross-cylinder (JCC), how should the handle and principal axes of the cross-cylinder lens be aligned relative to the trial cylinder axis in the phoropter?
Correct Answer:
The handle of the Jackson cross-cylinder is aligned directly parallel to the trial cylinder axis, positioning the principal power axes 45° straddling the axis.
Question 5
A 24-year-old patient seeking laser refractive surgery undergoes Scheimpflug corneal tomography (Pentacam). The Belin-Ambrósio Enhanced Ectasia Display shows a final total deviation index (BAD-D value) of 2.15, posterior elevation of +17 µm relative to the best-fit sphere, and thinnest pachymetry of 482 µm. What is the most appropriate clinical interpretation and recommendation?
Correct Answer:
Subclinical/forme fruste keratoconus; excimer laser ablation (LASIK/PRK) is contraindicated.
