Abstract: |
In order for an eye to be considered normal, it should meet this condition in which the light rays coming from a point in space, being refracted by the eye's optical system, focus on the retina forming a perfect image, while the eye is at rest. Then this eye is characterized as emmetropic. If this relation between axial length and refractive power is not harmonic in an eye , it will result in an incident parallel beam of rays not being focused on the retina, but instead in front or behind it. This eye is now characterized as ametropic and vision is blurred.
In this chapter, all ametropias are examined in relation to visual acuity.
