Preparation Tips
- • Know all eye parts: cornea (70% refraction), lens (30%, adjustable), retina (rods/cones), optic nerve
- • Understand accommodation: ciliary muscles change lens thickness for focus at different distances
- • Learn vision defects: Myopia (concave correction), Hyperopia (convex correction), Astigmatism (cylindrical)
- • Know power formula P = 1/f (f in metres). Positive P = convex, Negative P = concave
- • Rayleigh scattering I ∝ 1/λ⁴: Blue scatters ~4x more than red → blue sky and red sunset
- • Three cone types: S (blue 420nm), M (green 530nm), L (red 560nm) for trichromatic vision
- • Visible spectrum VIBGYOR: 380-750 nm. Violet most refracted, Red least
- • Practice power calculations for myopia/hyperopia corrections with given far/near points
