Trendy eyewear with an excessive wrap will mechanically change the prescription and induce unwanted prism. It is essential for opticians and optometrists to understand and compensate for these adverse changes. This course will cover how to calculate prism, and the effective power sphere, cylinder, axis of wrap lenses, and explore real-world solutions to this common problem.
Learning Objectives:
Upon conclusion of this activity, attendees will be able to:
Calculate unwanted horizontal prism based on frame wrap.
Calculate the effective sphere power, cylinder power, and axis as a result of frame wrap.
Describe digital lenses to compensate for an excessive wrap.
