  • The Refractive Errors Of The Human Eye Presbyopia
    What is presbyopia? Before we get to “how” of correcting presbyopia with eyeglasses, it’s important to understand what presbyopia is and why it exists in the first place. In this video we cover how the eye changes as we age, particularly the crystalline lens and how those changes are even related to cataracts.

    Man, I love all your videos. Informative and entertaining. I've just been doing a review of knowledge and skills I've picked up over the last 16 years, but I still learn something new when ever I watch your videos. True Rock Star Optician!

      Jayme, We have approached the ABO about that. Let's just say they were not very receptive to the idea and leave it at that. John

    Thanks John. I am an Apprentice Optician and have had some struggles with some of the concepts and, unfortunately, don't always get good support from my coworkers. Your videos, with your clear explanations and analogies, have been very beneficial in clearing much information up. My biggest challenge is Prism, so I'll be checking out those videos soon and (since I joined) may be sending questions. Thanks again!

    Great vids that are helpful to me as a customer to better communicate with my optician! But what is the music in this video? Sounds like the same used in a Monty Python episode that your sight gag at the beginning references?

    Very important !!!! The ciliary muscle can MOSTLY overcome that stiffened lens IF the ciliary is in shape, not weakened by readers. Got my lasik monovision reversed once I learned this info.

    Hey John, I have been watching your videos for quite some time. I am starting my opticianry program in about a month. I have grasped most of the formulas and other teachings. That being said I am hoping I can use your videos as a jumpstart before my program starts to kind of expect what I will learn. Is this a good idea or are all optician programs different?

    • @LaramyKOptical
      @LaramyKOptical  6 років тому

      Matt, I'd say about 1/2 of all our members are or were enrolled in some other program. I can't count the number of emails I have had over the years saying, "I never got it until you explained it." Do both, volunteer a few places, visit a surfacing lab, read trade magazines... John

    Hello doc, the presbyopia degree +400 is so big lense or not? Thank you for answering my question.

    • @LaramyKOptical

      In spherical powers any lens that starts with a + will be a lens that magnifies.

  • @kellz6266

    Father Time comes for us all if we're lucky enough to be alive for his visit. I'm approaching 50, and can now see a difference in my own vision. It sucks, but since I'm also getting AARP things in the mail, it's a good wake-up call that I am no longer part of the vibrant youth that I think I am.

    • @LaramyKOptical
      @LaramyKOptical  6 років тому +1

      Mohamed, You can enroll in the OpticianWorks program and I suspect at least a few online college programs would accept a foreign student. Look for a NFOS school if you choose that. John

      ?What does NFOS mean

    • @mohamedfawzi1667
      @mohamedfawzi1667 6 років тому +1

      This is the name of the school?

    • @mohamedfawzi1667
      @mohamedfawzi1667 6 років тому +1

      Do you know which of these colleges accept foreign students? PLEASE

    • @LaramyKOptical
      @LaramyKOptical  6 років тому +1

      National Federation of Opticianry Schools. That is far less fancy than it sounds. All I can say is that at least an NFOS school will have met some standards and chances are good that the school the program is connected to can probably award real college credits that would transfer to other schools and count towards an actual college degree. Or, to put it another way, be careful, since a few of the for-profit schools offer "optician" programs that are not much more than a scam.

    • @LaramyKOptical
      @LaramyKOptical  2 роки тому

      DOH! Yep - getting those tiny little lenses back in the inside of your eye when you can't see is really hard to do. Next time make sure you have a helper with good eyesight. Oh and always do one eye at a time. ;-)
