M4-L1 Check in Activity 2

In this activity you will apply your theoretical knowledge on hand neutralization of both
spherical and spherocylindrical lenses in order to complete the table. Please input your
answer in BLUE and save and submit in .pdf format.

A right 5.25D spherical single vision convex lens was for hand neutralization. Complete the
table for 5 points.

A patient has 2 pairs of eyeglasses, one to aid in seeing at distance while the other is used for
reading. The patient needs only one eyeglasses with the prescription based on the 2
eyeglasses he currently uses. Complete the tables for 10 points.

A pair of bifocal lens was for hand neutralization. No initial movement was seen when near
correction was neutralized while a convex lens of 2.75 D neutralized both lens at distance.
Complete the table for 7 points.
