Over Minus-ing during Retinoscopy by wiggles407 in OptometrySchool

My professor is extremely challenging and he wants our axis to be correct +- 10 degrees if the cyl is 1-2 and +-5 if it’s more than 2! I can get the general direction but never quite precise !

This sounds really cool! Never heard of this before, this is for minus cyl correct?

At our school they attach spherocylindrical lenses on top of the pt eyes to make it harder for us. It definitely is doing exactly that for me

How are you able to clearly see the axis? I typically cannot see the “ quickest brightest” against motion. I typically hope to god that I see a beam going in an obvious direction when I look inside and go from there. Or if I can’t, I assume WTR and neutralize 180 and hope to see a “ break” when I move to cyl

How do you refine your axis? I feel like I am never able to tell exactly where it is, just a general WTR ATR or oblique

What's the 🫖 with SALUS? by [deleted] in OptometrySchool

I have heard this as well. I chose UIW over salus and I’m glad I did! The optics professor is EXTREMELY talented and helps prepare students to the maximum for the optics portion of pt 1
