Course title: Biophysics of vision laboratory
Name in Polish: Laboratorium biofizyki widzenia
Organizational unit: Faculty of Physics
Course groups: ESOO - European programme in ophthalmic optics and optometry; 4th year courses
ECTS credit allocation (and other scores): 6.00 Basic information on ECTS credits allocation principles:
  • the annual hourly workload of the student’s work required to achieve the expected learning outcomes for a given stage is 1500-1800h, corresponding to 60 ECTS;
  • the student’s weekly hourly workload is 45 h;
  • 1 ECTS point corresponds to 25-30 hours of student work needed to achieve the assumed learning outcomes;
  • weekly student workload necessary to achieve the assumed learning outcomes allows to obtain 1.5 ECTS;
  • work required to pass the course, which has been assigned 3 ECTS, constitutes 10% of the semester student load.
Language: (unknown)
Prerequisites (description):

Credited subjects: Geriatric optometry and low-vision, Pediatric optometry, Clinical aspects of refraction measurement.

Short description:

The laboratory is divided into 5 exercises in which the biophysics of vision is discussed and practised.

Full description:

Exercise topics:

- Autorefractometry/aberrometry

- Colour vision, colour vision tests

- Optical coherence tomography

- Fundus imaging

- Contrast sensitivity

Assessment methods and assessment criteria:

Intermediate grades for exercises are given on the basis of reports. The final grade is the resultant of the partial grades.
