WHAT IS TONOMETER?

THIS PARAGRAPH HAS BEEN WRITTEN IN REFERENCE TO MDU ROHTAK EXAM PATTERN

In order to ensure a person’s optic nerves are healthy, optometrists check the pressure placed on them by the fluid in the eyes. This pressure is called intraocular pressure and should measure between 10 mmHg and 21 mmHg. Measurements that are higher than normal can be a sign of early glaucoma or retinal detachment.

SNELLEN'S CHART-BASIC CLINICAL SCIENCES TUTORIAL

A Snellen chart is an eye chart used by eye care professionals and others to measure visual acuity. Snellen charts are named after the Dutch ophthalmologist Herman Snellen who developed the chart in 1862

The traditional Snellen chart is printed with eleven lines of block letters. The first line consists of one very large letter, which may be one of several letters, for example E, H, N, or A. Subsequent rows have increasing numbers of letters that decrease in size. A patient taking the test covers one eye, and reads aloud the letters of each row, beginning at the top. The smallest row that can be read accurately indicates the patient’s visual acuity in that eye.

Basic Kidney Anatomy

  • Kidneys paired, about 150 gm each
  • Urine forming units:
    • Cortex
    • Medulla (lobed: renal pyramids)
    • Cortex and medulla composed chiefly of nephrons and blood vessels
    • Supplied by renal arteries (branches of descending aorta) and renal veins (branches of inferior vena cava)
  • Urine collecting and expelling units:
    • Calyces
    • Renal pelvises
    • Ureters
    • Bladder
    • Urethra

Although the Kidneys are Tiny Organs They Receive 25% of the Cardiac Output
