Thanks a million for this easy to process under pressure method. I solved each of the example in the transposed form too just to confirm if the method holds true ( off course it does) and for practice. Thanks agoin.

I have THREE QUESTIONS, because Google is confusing me. If I have With the rule astigmatism- is my cornea the shape of an egg rolled onto its side when viewed from the front (like looking at the longest width of a football) or and egg sitting vertical in a carton 🥚? Also, when I look at an astigmatism chart and for both eyes I see prominent on 90/270 and 60/240. What axis would be prescribed to correct this? Is it the same numbers I see on the chart or what? AND the third question. My right eye sees the above numbers on an astigmatism wheel spokes chart thing, but sometimes switches to 180/0 and 150/330 while I'm looking at it or if I blink. What is the causes for this?

what about the axis having numbers 170 and 160

Great video as all of them! But I have a question: what if the axis is different than90 or 180? I was taught that axis from 0 to 30 and 150 to 180 are with the rule, 70 to 120 against the rule, and the others are oblique.

Thank you! Unfortunately the guidelines for inclusion in with rule and against the rule are not freely available in the literature. At least not in a reliable source. Smolin and Thoft mentions 15 degrees on either side of the vertical and horizontal as the limits. Since this is a standard book, one can take those values

What is compound number?

If the axis Meridian isn’t 90 or 180 then how can we find the rule of astigmatism..wheather is it WTR or ATR?

@ophthalmologypearls

Different books give different axes that qualify to be called oblique astigmatism. Smolin & Thoft mentions outside of 15 degrees on either side of the horizontal / vertical meridian is considered oblique astigmatism; other books mention 30 degrees. In the examination, the examiner only wants to know if you can identify based on the numbers and signs, & will not be overly concerned about oblique astigmatism

Mam if the axis is less than 90 then it is against or with the rule

@ophthalmologypearls

Жыл бұрын

There is no hard & fast number for this. Each reference gives a different number (from 10-30 degrees). So as a general guide - within 30 degrees of the vertical meridian can be considered as if the axis is at 90, & within 30 degrees of the horizontal meridian, the axis can be considered as if the axis is at 180

Shouldn't example 8 be mixed hypermetropic WTR Astigmatism????? btw Thank you so much for video

@ophthalmologypearls

3 ай бұрын

In example 8, since the signs of both sphere and the cylinder are plus, this is a compound hyperopic astigmatism. There is no such thing as a mixed hyperopic astigmatism.

All the standard books describing optics & refractive errors simply mention that if the axis is at or near 90 or 180, it is with / against the rule and others are oblique astigmatism. Most books that do give a definitive value are not standard books that one can quote. I found these lines which I am quoting from Smolin & Thoft (The Cornea, SCIENTIFIC FOUNDATIONS AND CLINICAL PRACTICE) - "In with- the- rule astigmatism, the steepest meridian is within plus or minus 15 degrees of being vertical " and "In against- the- rule astigmatism, the steepest meridian is within plus or minus15 degrees of being horizontal." Since Smolin & Thoft is a standard book for cornea, we can take this value.

I have only CYL number No sphere

What does with the rule astigmatism mean

@ophthalmologypearls

2 жыл бұрын

With-the-rule astigmatism is astigmatism where the vertical meridian is more myopic (horizontal meridian more hypermetropic) & against-the-rule astigmatism is astigmatism where the horizontal meridian is more myopic (vertical meridian more hypermetropic)
