    This was a great explanation!! Just a quick question how far away from the patient do you do counting fingers, hand movements and perception of light test?

    Hi 👋 thanks for your video.. I dont have much experience with opthalmology but have a personal question.. if someone's VA showed.. R 6/12+ pinhole and L6/9-2 hand movements..... what would you expect their level of vision to be? Thank you.

    Should the patient also wear reading or near vision glasses if they have them or should the only glasses be worn be those required for distance?
