A comprehensive study guide for the opt 160 course, covering various topics related to ophthalmic lens measurement and visual field testing. It includes detailed information on neutralization, ophthalmic notation, lens types, lensometry, prescription transposition, and visual acuity testing. Additionally, the guide covers visual field testing techniques, such as perimetry, goldmann perimetry, humphrey field analyzer, and tangent screen exams. The document also addresses common issues and best practices for conducting these tests, including patient cooperation, calibration, and troubleshooting. This study guide is designed to provide students with a thorough understanding of the concepts and procedures involved in measuring and evaluating ophthalmic lenses and visual fields, making it a valuable resource for those pursuing a career in the field of optometry or ophthalmology.
