consider the following and determine the type of refractive error(s). Classify the astigmatism further if any:
OD: +2.00 -3.00 180 Add: +1.25
If I were to classify the above rx in simple terms, it would be:
Hyperope, Mixed Astigmat, Presbyope.
Now if I have PLANO -3.00 180 Add: +1.25
should it be Emmetrope, Simple Myopic, Presbyope ??
I want to know if I would be correct to use Emmetrope in this case. Since Emmetrope means no correction needed but this person has astigmatism correction so this person is not Emmetrope. At the same time I am classifying the Sphere and cyl separately.
