Refraction of the eye: emmatropia - (ANSWER)normal refractive condition of the eye
Refraction of the eye: Myopia (nearsightedness) - (ANSWER)Light rays focus in front of retina
You use a Rosenbaum chart to test this vision
Refraction of the eye: hyperopia (farsightedness) - (ANSWER)Light rays focus behind the retina
You use Snellen chart to test this vision
Refraction of the eye: Presbyopia (age related far sightedness) - (ANSWER)light rays focus behind the
retina
Cranial Nerve II (two) - (ANSWER)Visual acuity (testing vision with snellen chart)
Snellen Chart - (ANSWER)Position patient 20 feet from the chart
Test one eye at a time, read left to right, top to bottom most line they can see
If patient uses corrective lenses, first test with eyeglassess then without it
Snellen Chart: Normal and Abnormal Findings - (ANSWER)20/20 is normal vision
20/30 and up is abnormal
20/200 is legal blindness
Cranial Nerve: III, IV, VI (3,4,6) - (ANSWER)Extraoccular movements (PERRLA)
Hirschberg Test - (ANSWER)When shining light 12 inches from patient, reflection of light (which appears
as a twinkle) should appear in the same spot on both pupils.
A positive hirschberg sign is an abnormal finding
Esotropia - (ANSWER)One eye moves inward
, NURS 190 PHYSICAL ASSESSMENT FINAL EXAM 2 LATEST VERSIONS REAL EXAM 2026
UPDATED
Exotropia - (ANSWER)One eye turns outward
Testing for Strabismus (cross eye) - (ANSWER)The cover/uncover test is what tests for strabismus.
Cover one eye and observe the uncovered eye. It should be looking straight ahead. Then quickly uncover
the covered eye and observe it to see if it moves. It should be looking straight ahead as well.
Abnormal Eye Findings: Mydriasis - (ANSWER)pupils stay larger (dilated) with or without light shining in
the eye
Abnormal Eye Findings: Miosis - (ANSWER)pupils stay smaller (constricted) with or without light shining
in the eye
Abnormal Eye Findings: Strabismus (Esotropia) - (ANSWER)Eye moves inward
Abnormal Eye Findings: Strabismus (Exotropia) - (ANSWER)Eye moves outward
Abnormal Eye Findings: Ptosis - (ANSWER)Drooping of the eyelid
Abnormal Eye Findings: Periorbital edema - (ANSWER)Swollen, puffy lids- occurs with infection, trauma,
and systemic problems like kidney, heart failure, and allergy
Abnormal Eye Findings: Exophthalmos - (ANSWER)Bulging eyes- can occur in one or both eyeballs
(happens with hyperthyroidism/Grave's disease)
Abnormal Eye Findings: Chalazion - (ANSWER)Firm, nontender nodule on the eyelid, arising from
infection of the meibomian gland. Not painful unless inflammed.
Abnormal Eye Findings: Hordeolum (aka stye) - (ANSWER)Staphylococcal infection of hair follicles on the
margin of the lids. Affected eye is swollen, red, and painful. Also called a stye.
