1. On a SV prescription for a child with hyperopia, do you use a distance PD or near PD?
Obviously, for myopia, a distance PD is used.
For NVO on a pt with presbyopia, a near PD is used.
But what about hyperopia? They're not really 'reading glasses' but the lens is a plus, and the focal point is relatively short.
2. While we're at it, how many of you use monocular PD's for a ST bifocal (or other visible bifocal)? Or, would you use a binocular for symmetry?
