Course objectives
At the end of these lectures collection a student will be able to use gained knowledge for complete orientation in problems of refractive errors in every relate circumstances. The student will be able to categorize and to apply principals which are connected with geometrical, instrumental and spectacle optics. The student analyzes single refractive states and circumstances including setting of objective and subjective refraction. The student justifies the best way of correction.
Learning outcomes
At the end of these lectures collection a student will be able to use gained knowledge for complete orientation in problems of refractive errors in every relate circumstances.
