Retinoscopy

Another tool optometrists can use to find someone's prescription.

I want to thank Neen for being such a good patient, and also Alcon for making the retinoscopy simulator available. Alcon = love.

@Nasjhaz Hey there! I hope I'm not too late. I am afraid I cannot help you with what you are seeing, but I can remind you to be sure that your sleeve is either down or up, depending on what mirror you want to use. I typically keep my sleeve down. The link to the ret simulator is in the "more info" box.

GROW UP.

Either lower the music & pick up the vocal or eliminate the music all together.

@youroptician What is your problem?

Ret is so hard. I tried it last Thurs and Friday and I was lost. Fortunately I had an OD helping me. He told me that Ret is one of the hardest procedures to learn and he said, "just use the autorefract." I don't want to rely on that machine. Your explanation is so much easier to understand. Wish me luck this week! <3 Skott

@skottmalaise1 Aww, good luck. Don't lose hope - autorefraction is great, but ret is not worthless. Master it now and you can always keep it in your back pocket. Keep it up!
