A phoropter
contains different lenses used for refraction of the eye during sight
testing, to measure an individual's refractive error and determine his
or her eyeglass prescription
.
Tonometer
Determine Intraocular pressure (IOP), the fluid pressure inside
the eye. calibrated to measure pressure in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Schiotz tonometer
Applanation tonometer
Non contact tonometer
Slit lamp
Instrument consisting of a high-intensity light source that can be focused to shine a
thin sheet of light into the eye. It is used in conjunction with a biomicroscope. The
lamp facilitates an examination of the anterior segment and posterior segment of
the human eye, which includes the eyelid, sclera, conjunctiva, iris, natural crystalline
lens, and cornea
.
Retinoscope
Mirror and Streak
A Retinoscope
being used in conjunction with a trial frame and trial lenses in
order to determine the patient's refractive error.
The working distance lens being one which has a focal length of the
examiner's distance from the patient (e.g. +1.50 dioptre lens for a
67 cm working distance)
Direct opthalmoscope
Indirect opthalmoscope
Snellen chart is an eye chart to measure visual acuity.
E chart
this chart is useful for patients who are unable to read the Latin
alphabet - for example, very young children.
The Landolt Chart
-for those who can not read
-consists of a ring that has a gap, thus looking similar to the
letter C. The gap can be at various positions (usually left, right,
bottom, top and the 45° positions in between) and the task of
the tested person is to decide on which side the gap is.

Autorefractor
An intraocular lens (IOL) is a lens implanted in
the eye used to treat cataracts or myopia.
