- Easy steps to never miss the type of astigmatism from the prescription.
As postgraduates, you are expected to be able to diagnose the type of astigmatism from the prescription. Some are easy & some are not because they may be in the transposed form. It can be derived of course, but sometimes the stress of an examination can cause one to go blank. Follow the steps, tips, & examples given here, and you will be able to diagnose the type of astigmatism even under extreme pressure.

Wow such an awesome video you really helped me to fully understand Astigmatism types & decipher the prescriptions & meanings & all I have is a simple passing interest in this but you broke it down so well I feel like an expert now. Great job. Your examples at the end are top notch by the way. Excellent video.
Thank you, ma'am! This largely eliminates the need for a pen and paper to transpose each time to arrive at a diagnosis.
The best explanation that allowed me to finally be able to understand my prescription. Thank you so much.
Simple & easy to get till now I think no one can make astigmatism such a easy way thanks
Thank you so much Ma’am for saving my time 🙌
I find this video many time ! Thanks a lot for this and all videos. Respect. It's for us starting doctors ophthalmology elixir of the knowledge!!!♥️♥️♥️🙏
Thanks a million for this easy to process under pressure method. I solved each of the example in the transposed form too just to confirm if the method holds true ( off course it does) and for practice. Thanks agoin.
Nice. So with all that practice you can never go wrong again. Advise you practice one or two examples once a month just to keep in touch
@@ophthalmologypearlsmay we know how to determine mam whether it is against the rule or with the rule
If the axis is other than 90 and 180 degree
Wow mam! The most simplified version out there. Very helpful. Thank you
Thank you so much for explaining this I've been searching for an easy explanation for long and now here I am well equipped with the knowledge that you've provided.
Thank you...for a layman like me it was good to know such brief and just
Most appreciable explanation ever😊😊
Best explanation so far. Thankyou Madam
Madam pls make a video on how to do retinoscopy and also comprehend the values of retinoscopy to convert it to spectacle prescription for postgraduates
Respected mam,
So grateful to you.
Humphrey visual field analyzer want to know about it.
Thank you so much so easy to understand the explanation 😊
Amazing explanation ma'am ❤️❤️
Much needed video for pg .
Thanks a lot Anupama mam ..the video s excellent
Thanks, though you got my name wrong :)
if the axis are 110 or 40 then how we find the direction ?
Oblique
Very helpful ma'am 😊
Wow! This is the best explanation ever 👏 🙌
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Thank you so muchh, this is very helpful
It was very helpful... Thank you
Very helpful thanks ❤
Thank you so much mam it was very help full. Nice teaching 🥰🥰
Which lens can use in compound myopic astigmatism against the rule?
perfect, thank you.
Thank you so much mam
Thank you so much!
Great video as all of them! But I have a question: what if the axis is different than90 or 180? I was taught that axis from 0 to 30 and 150 to 180 are with the rule, 70 to 120 against the rule, and the others are oblique.
Thank you! Unfortunately the guidelines for inclusion in with rule and against the rule are not freely available in the literature. At least not in a reliable source. Smolin and Thoft mentions 15 degrees on either side of the vertical and horizontal as the limits. Since this is a standard book, one can take those values
excellent
Excellent ma'am 👏👏
Made it simple 😅❤
what about the axis having numbers 170 and 160
I have THREE QUESTIONS, because Google is confusing me.
If I have With the rule astigmatism- is my cornea the shape of an egg rolled onto its side when viewed from the front (like looking at the longest width of a football) or and egg sitting vertical in a carton 🥚?
Also, when I look at an astigmatism chart and for both eyes I see prominent on 90/270 and 60/240. What axis would be prescribed to correct this? Is it the same numbers I see on the chart or what?
AND the third question.
My right eye sees the above numbers on an astigmatism wheel spokes chart thing, but sometimes switches to 180/0 and 150/330 while I'm looking at it or if I blink.
What is the causes for this?
Thanks a lot doctor 🌹🙏🌹 🇮🇶
Perfect👍
Amazing
magic!
Thank You
Mam can u add video on
Surgical procedures for glaucoma
Are you an undergraduate or postgraduate?
@@ophthalmologypearls undergraduate mam
But how to understand astigmatism if the axis is not 90 or 180. Like 70 or 130 etc...
@@SomaraniMahato-eo2lj the answer is given as a reply to the other comments on this video please see
+1.00DS/-1.00DS ×90 .IN VIDEO 1.16 SAYS simple astigmatism, but in another video says it is mixed astigmatism,please clarify mam
@tamilselvan.r8262 This is without a doubt simple hyperopic astigmatism. Transpose & you will realise
@@ophthalmologypearls thank you madam 🫡🫡
What is compound number?
How to identify regular irregular astigmatism
@@sunithareddym what is regular irregular astigmatism?
@@ophthalmologypearls some one said regular astigmatism means normal irregular means but birth defects or surgeries or some thing like that
There is regular astigmatism and there is irregular astigmatism. There is no such thing as regular irregular
Shouldn't example 8 be mixed hypermetropic WTR Astigmatism?????
btw
Thank you so much for video
In example 8, since the signs of both sphere and the cylinder are plus, this is a compound hyperopic astigmatism. There is no such thing as a mixed hyperopic astigmatism.
@@ophthalmologypearls oh thank you thank you, ma'am
If the axis Meridian isn’t 90 or 180 then how can we find the rule of astigmatism..wheather is it WTR or ATR?
Different books give different axes that qualify to be called oblique astigmatism. Smolin & Thoft mentions outside of 15 degrees on either side of the horizontal / vertical meridian is considered oblique astigmatism; other books mention 30 degrees. In the examination, the examiner only wants to know if you can identify based on the numbers and signs, & will not be overly concerned about oblique astigmatism
@@ophthalmologypearls thanks a lot.
T̤h̤a̤n̤k̤ y̤o̤ṳ ❤
Sign are different then how its compound mam???
@@areeba321 watch the video and you will understand
@@ophthalmologypearls arent sign same in compound one ? I cant understand
@@areeba321That was my question too. I think when numbers and signs are same she says compound. When numbers are same with different signs she says simple!
But in the video, she teaches that when we have different signs and sph is bigger it's also compound. Confusing!
If you are confused, transpose and it will become clear
@@ophthalmologypearls yes i transposed and its easy for me now but i use with the rulae and against the rule trick ots very helpful . Thnx alot
What if your axis is like 88° or 117° is that oblique astigmatism?

I have only CYL number
No sphere
Thank you.
Very confusing.
Mam can you please explain transpositions also
Here is the video

What does with the rule astigmatism mean
With-the-rule astigmatism is astigmatism where the vertical meridian is more myopic (horizontal meridian more hypermetropic) & against-the-rule astigmatism is astigmatism where the horizontal meridian is more myopic (vertical meridian more hypermetropic)
Mam if the axis is less than 90 then it is against or with the rule
There is no hard & fast number for this. Each reference gives a different number (from 10-30 degrees). So as a general guide - within 30 degrees of the vertical meridian can be considered as if the axis is at 90, & within 30 degrees of the horizontal meridian, the axis can be considered as if the axis is at 180
Mam can you do a video on disc changes in glaucoma . thank you
Yes, I just need to know whether you are an undergraduate or a postgraduate
@@ophthalmologypearls Post graduate madam
@@ophthalmologypearls j
Mam wat if the axis is say eg.140 , 30 deg
All the standard books describing optics & refractive errors simply mention that if the axis is at or near 90 or 180, it is with / against the rule and others are oblique astigmatism. Most books that do give a definitive value are not standard books that one can quote. I found these lines which I am quoting from Smolin & Thoft (The Cornea, SCIENTIFIC FOUNDATIONS
AND CLINICAL PRACTICE) - "In with- the- rule astigmatism, the steepest
meridian is within plus or minus 15 degrees of being vertical " and "In against- the- rule astigmatism, the steepest meridian is within plus or minus15 degrees of being horizontal." Since Smolin & Thoft is a standard book for cornea, we can take this value.
👍👍👍
Wow
I had left eye s= - 0.50
C =-1.25
A = 90
Right eye S = 0.50
C= 0.50
A= 86
What is this called ma'am
What astigmatism I had
@@sunithareddym you have not specified the sign of the power in the left eye for both sphere and cylinder
@@sunithareddym right eye is compound myopic against the rule
@@ophthalmologypearls minus both sphere and cylinder both minus left eye and right eye ma'am
Ma'am thank you for replying ma'am IA m stressed with my eye sight what is against rule astigmatism ma'am
