JACKSON CROSS CYLINDER
1) The Jackson Cross Cylinder is an optical device used to objectively refine the measurement of astigmatism during refraction examinations. It consists of two equal but opposite cylinders mounted at right angles to each other.
2) The JCC is used to refine the cylindrical axis by placing it parallel to the trial lens cylinder and flipping it to see if there are changes in visual acuity. The trial lens cylinder is rotated based on the direction of clarity.
3) The JCC is also used to refine the cylindrical power by placing it parallel to the trial lens axis and flipping it. If clarity changes, cylinder power is increased based on the side of clarity.
Detail of suppression and AC
This document discusses the treatment of suppression and arc. It defines suppression as a cortical phenomenon that eliminates visual confusion and diplopia in strabismus. There are various types and causes of suppression. The purpose of suppression is to avoid diplopia and confusion. Treatment aims to eliminate suppression and establish binocular vision through techniques like occlusion, prism adaptation, and use of instruments like the TV trainer and bar reader that break suppression by manipulating target parameters.
Real active and passive therapy in amblyopia managament
This document discusses different therapies for treating amblyopia, including both passive and active approaches. It describes passive therapies like refractive correction, occlusion therapy, and penalization, which aim to eliminate visual deprivation and correct ocular dominance without active effort from the patient. It also discusses active therapies like pleoptics and perceptual learning, which require the patient's conscious involvement in visual tasks to improve performance. The key goals of amblyopia treatment are to restore visual acuity and make the amblyopic eye the preferred eye for fixation and vision.
Orientation and mobility for low vision patients and rehabilitation
Orientation and mobility training teaches people with visual impairments to travel safely and independently through their environment. It involves teaching concepts, skills, and techniques for recognizing one's position in relation to their surroundings (orientation) and navigating obstacles during movement (mobility). Some key benefits of orientation and mobility training include increased independence, safety, personal development, and community integration for visually impaired individuals. It involves developing sensory awareness skills like using sounds, smells, and touch to understand one's surroundings.

Basics of pediatric refraction by dr.adnan
This document summarizes the basics of pediatric refraction as presented by Dr. Mahamud Adnan. Key points include:
1) Pediatric refraction requires great expertise as it is different from normal refraction due to active accommodation in children. Cycloplegic refraction is preferable to paralyze the ciliary muscles.
2) The refractive status of infants and children changes rapidly in the first year as visual development occurs. Cycloplegia allows determining the true refractive error without accommodation.
3) Cycloplegic drugs like atropine and cyclopentolate are used which have side effects like blurred vision but allow full paralysis of accommodation for accurate refraction assessment. Timely intervention and
Diplopia charting
This document discusses diplopia charting, which is used to diagnose ophthalmoplegia by recording double vision. It outlines the etiology, principles, objectives, procedure, interpretations and applications to specific cranial nerve palsies. Diplopia charting involves having the patient view a light source through colored lenses to indicate the position of double images in different gazes. This provides information to localize affected extraocular muscles and diagnose conditions like cranial nerve palsies. Precise documentation of findings from diplopia charting combined with patient history and exam can help identify neuro-ophthalmic pathologies.
Orthoptics Introduction test
An orthoptic evaluation systematically evaluates the function of eye muscles during binocular eye movements to maintain fusion. It identifies accommodative, vergence, or fusional vergence anomalies to guide orthoptic exercises for treatment. The evaluation includes tests to check for single vision, diplopia, suppression, alignment, and accommodation. Based on symptoms like headaches or blurry vision, further tests are done to diagnose conditions like convergence insufficiency. The evaluation involves tests of phoria, near point of convergence, accommodation, fusional vergence, and accommodative function and facility.
Vision assessment of the pediatric patients
This document provides guidance on vision assessment for pediatric patients, including preverbal children and those with special needs. For preverbal children, vision is evaluated through visual behaviors rather than visual acuity testing. The goals are to determine if vision behavior is normal for age and if vision is equal between eyes. Normal visual behaviors are described for infants and toddlers. Tips are provided for testing fixation reflex and documenting results. Amblyopia can be detected through observation of eye preference or differential occlusion testing. Verbal children can undergo visual acuity testing starting around age 3 using psychological tests suited to their age. Factors to consider include testing both with and without glasses, maintaining attention, and avoiding test artifacts. Near vision may also be tested if
My low vision rehabilitation in multiple handicapped patients
This document provides information on low vision rehabilitation for patients with multiple handicaps. It discusses the team involved in low vision rehabilitation, which includes low vision doctors, occupational therapists, rehabilitation teachers, physical therapists, and others. The document also covers assessing visual functions, prescribing low vision devices, and some common causes of visual impairment and multiple handicaps. The goal of low vision rehabilitation is to maximize remaining vision and improve quality of life.
Fusion
This document discusses measurement of fusion and stereopsis in binocular vision. It begins by defining binocular vision and binocular single vision. It then discusses various classifications, prerequisites, advantages, and related terms of binocular single vision. The document also describes different tests used to measure fusion, including the synaptophore, prism fusion test, Worth's four dot test, Bagolini's striated glass test, and Maddox rod test. It provides details on the procedures and interpretations of these tests. Finally, it discusses the development and grades of binocular vision.
Exodeviation
This document discusses exodeviation, also known as divergent strabismus, where the visual axes diverge outward instead of converging. There are two main types - concomitant and incomitant. Exodeviation can be primary, such as infantile exotropia which begins in the first 6 months of life, or intermittent exotropia where the eyes diverge intermittently. Secondary exodeviation includes sensory exotropia caused by visual impairment, and consecutive exotropia following correction of esotropia. Treatment depends on the type and may include correcting refractive errors, vision therapy, prism therapy, or surgery. The angle of exodeviation is measured using tests

Scleral contact lenses , types, uses in various ocular conditions.
An in-depth and unbiased details of these lenses as a therapeutic and also as a drug - delivery system in modern ophthalmology.
A must read for all Ophthalmologists and Optometrists.
Low vision non optical devices
Non-optical devices play an important role in helping people with low vision. They improve functional vision and are cheaper than optical devices. Examples include devices that increase illumination, contrast, size of text, and assist with tasks like reading, writing, medication management, and mobility. Training in techniques like eccentric viewing and scanning can also help low vision patients make better use of their remaining vision.
Tints and filter for patients with low vision
The document discusses various tints and filters that can help patients with low vision. It provides information on conditions like age-related macular degeneration, cataracts, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, retinitis pigmentosa, pathological myopia, and corneal dystrophy. For each condition, it recommends certain tints and filters that may help enhance contrast and reduce glare, such as amber, orange, grey, and green tints as well as filters like CPF and NoIR filters. The document provides details on the light transmission properties and benefits of different tint and filter options.
Manufacturing of contact lenses
This document summarizes the manufacturing process for rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses and soft contact lenses. For RGP lenses, care must be taken during blocking, cutting, polishing, and solvent cleaning. Lathing and molding are two common manufacturing methods, with lathing being older but able to produce a wider range of designs, while molding allows for higher volume production and more complex designs. For soft lenses, common manufacturing methods include cast molding, lathing, spin casting, and combinations of these methods. Stabilized soft molding has advantages for high volume production.
Accommodative and vergence dysfunction
Accommodative and vergence dysfunctions can cause symptoms like blurred vision, difficulty reading, and asthenopia. Key diagnostic tests include cover test, versions, near point of convergence, and fusional vergence amplitudes. Accommodative issues include insufficiency, fatigue, and infacility. Vergence issues include convergence insufficiency, divergence excess, and basic exophoria. Early treatment is important to prevent amblyopia or learning problems from vergence anomalies.
Binocular refraction techniques, binocular balancing
This document discusses various binocular refraction techniques including binocular balancing and binocular best sphere. It describes several methods for achieving binocular balancing such as Humphiss fogging, alternate occlusion testing, duochrome testing with fogging, prism dissociation, and Turville's infinity balance test. The goal of binocular balancing is to achieve equal accommodation between the two eyes rather than just matching visual acuity. Proper binocular balancing is important to reduce asthenopia from an imbalanced refraction.
Visual acuity assessment in different group of age
This document outlines various methods for assessing visual acuity in infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and school-aged children. Qualitative tests like observation of fixation and pursuit are used for infants, while preferential looking tests involve showing high-contrast patterns. Quantitative tests increasingly use matching and identification of optotypes like the HOTV, Landolt C, and Snellen charts as children develop language and cognitive abilities from ages 2 to school age.
Examination of a case of squint
This document summarizes the key steps in examining a case of squint. It outlines obtaining the patient's presenting signs and symptoms, medical history, and previous treatments. Tests are described to assess visual acuity, fixation, refractive error, and the anterior segment. The motor status is examined through head posture, ocular movements, and fusional vergences. Ocular deviation is detected using cover tests and quantified. The sensory status is evaluated for binocularity, diplopia, retinal correspondence, suppression, amblyopia, and stereopsis. Both objective and subjective examination methods are outlined to thoroughly evaluate squint.
Screening
Vision screening is important to identify vision impairments in children so they can receive treatment. Screening should begin at birth and continue at well-child visits. Early screening can detect conditions like amblyopia, which is most effectively treated in early childhood. While only 21% of preschoolers receive vision screening, screening is highly cost-effective for detecting and treating amblyopia and other vision issues. Pediatricians play a key role in regularly screening children's vision as part of comprehensive well-child care.
Diplopia charting
Diplopia, or double vision, occurs when more than one image of an object is seen simultaneously. It can be caused by abnormalities in the eyes themselves or issues with eye movement coordination. A diplopia chart is used to evaluate the type and location of double vision by having the patient report the appearance of light sources in different gaze positions. Interpretation of the chart provides clues to which eye muscles may be affected and whether the cause is neurogenic, restrictive, or myogenic in nature. Treatment options include glasses, prisms, eye patching, or strabismus surgery depending on the deviation and goal of eliminating diplopia.

Visual Impairment and Motor Development
Motor development is delayed in individuals with vision impairments (VI), especially after age 3 when differences in gross motor skills like locomotion emerge compared to sighted peers. The degree and type of VI, such as peripheral field loss, acuity loss, or cortical visual impairment, affect development and should be considered to appropriately support individuals. Adaptations like optimal lighting, audio cues, and consistent organization can help with motor skills, while sports provide inclusive physical activity opportunities. Understanding how VI impacts development informs teaching practices.
Pediatric Cerebral Visual Impairment:: Childrens Hospital Omaha, NE
This document summarizes a conference on evaluating and treating pediatric cerebral visual impairment (PCVI). The conference aims to bring professionals together to define PCVI, determine visual function in children with PCVI, and discuss therapeutic strategies. PCVI was previously referred to as cortical or cerebral visual impairment but a unified definition is needed. Evaluating visual function and functional vision is important for children with PCVI who often have ocular, visual pathway, visual processing and oculomotor issues. Treatment should begin with addressing any correctable visual issues and promoting visual development.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.

Dandelion Hashtable: beyond billion requests per second on a commodity server
This slide deck presents DLHT, a concurrent in-memory hashtable. Despite efforts to optimize hashtables, that go as far as sacrificing core functionality, state-of-the-art designs still incur multiple memory accesses per request and block request processing in three cases. First, most hashtables block while waiting for data to be retrieved from memory. Second, open-addressing designs, which represent the current state-of-the-art, either cannot free index slots on deletes or must block all requests to do so. Third, index resizes block every request until all objects are copied to the new index. Defying folklore wisdom, DLHT forgoes open-addressing and adopts a fully-featured and memory-aware closed-addressing design based on bounded cache-line-chaining. This design offers lock-free index operations and deletes that free slots instantly, (2) completes most requests with a single memory access, (3) utilizes software prefetching to hide memory latencies, and (4) employs a novel non-blocking and parallel resizing. In a commodity server and a memory-resident workload, DLHT surpasses 1.6B requests per second and provides 3.5x (12x) the throughput of the state-of-the-art closed-addressing (open-addressing) resizable hashtable on Gets (Deletes).
