UNIT 1: REFRACTIVE ERROR AND REFRACTION

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• To understand refractive error, demonstrate refraction technique and prescribe refractive prescription.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of the module the student should be able to

Knowlegde:

• Identify refractive errors: Hyperopia, Myopia, Astigmatism and Presbyopia
  
• Describe accommodation and its relation to age
• Describe the differences between cycloplegic and manifest refraction
• Explain the difference between subjective and objective refraction
• Measure refractive error with an autorefractor
• Perform and record retinoscopy
• Refine refractive error(sphere & cylinder) using phoropter and trial lenses
• Use refractometry techniques: Fogging, duochrome, binocular balancing
• Perform and record transposition and optical cross
• Calculate and record spherical equivalent
• Determine near add

Learning Objectives

1. To aquirea concept of blindness and visual impairment
2. To developan understanding of the social and economicimplications of blindness and quaity of life for the blind
3. To have a knowledge of the magnitude, pattern and distribution of blindness in Rwanda

Introduces the basic principles governing transmission of light and its interaction with optical media

Introduces mathematics used in optical prescriptions, manufacturing and dispensing of lenses.

Optical models of the human eye are presented in order to study the optics of myopia,hyperopia and astigmatism

to evaluate soil fertility parameter under different agroforestry species and their effect on crop productivity.  inGishwati – Mukura landscape

In  Rwanda especially Gishwati-Mukura forest  was continuing deforestated and plant diversity losses ,in part due to the settlement and land use practices, namely deforestation and human agricultural activity

Basically cassava is important food crops in the world as well as in Rwanda. Its grown by numerous smollhoders farmers for consumption . However this crop still constrained with lower production due to mosaic diseases mainly cassava mosaic.Therefore based on this challenge prompt me to make evaluation of damage of cassava mosaic diseases for further propose sustainable control measure.  

Carbon mitigation through the regrowth and protection of largely natural forests has the potential for the greatest environmental benefits in terms of ecosystem services and biodiversity protection, while still providing significant long-term storage(Courard-Hauri, Chancellor, Rundus, & Boland, 2016).  Among the recent efforts towards enhancing, the government of Rwanda has embarked on a vigorous afforestation program, aiming to achieve 30% forest cover by 2020(Official et al., 2014).

 Land use change from natural forests to perennial or annual crops in the tropical regions has been implicated as the major cause for the depletion of soil fertilty and food security decline
