Publisher's Synopsis
Ocular Refraction And The Shadow Test is a book written by Frederick Albert Bates in 1903. The book focuses on the topic of ocular refraction, which is the measurement of the eye's ability to bend light and focus it on the retina. Bates discusses the various methods used to measure ocular refraction, including the use of lenses and the shadow test. The shadow test is a technique used to determine the refractive error of the eye by observing the position of the shadows cast by a small light source on the eye. The book also covers the anatomy of the eye and the physiology of vision. Bates provides detailed explanations of the various refractive errors that can occur in the eye, such as myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism. He also discusses the treatment options available for these conditions, including the use of corrective lenses and surgery. Overall, Ocular Refraction And The Shadow Test is a comprehensive guide to the measurement and treatment of ocular refraction, written by an expert in the field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
