to demonstrate the optical and physical basic of bifocal and progressive lenses, their application in the correction of presbyopia;
to give knowledge about the prescription and mounting of these lenses and to learn the causes of progressive lenses non-adaptation and in problem solving;
to learn the optical principles of contact lenses applications and to give knowledge in contact lenses calculations on basis of patient’s refraction;
to learn how to use spherical and toric contact lenses for correction of ametropia using soft and gas permeable contact lens materials.
The aim of the course is to introduce students to the significance of intecultural communication in the diplomatic work.
