No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1978–79 to 1982–83 (before that, 1968–69 to 1977–78 used the number for Optometrical Optics and Advanced Clinical Optometry); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

A series of lectures and practical demonstrations of the principles and procedures of advanced contact lens materials and resources including their physiological implications. Pediatric Optometry Special aspects of the management of vision problems of infants and young children are discussed. Visual Aspects of Learning Difficulties The aspects of vision problems related to learning difficulty including tests and measurements taken by optometrists. The role of the optometrist in conjunction with the parents, teachers, and psychologists in assisting children to achieve is discussed.

As printed in the 1978–79 to 1982–83 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

    Another title: Advanced Clinical Optometry, probably a different course under the same number (or a misread scan).

    The lecture portion of this course will deal with special techniques of clinical optometry for examination of refractive properties and binocular relations; techniques of binocular refraction, prism adaptation; etiology of refractive errors and change of refraction with age; seminars and the presentation of clinical case reports by the student for defense and criticism will constitute a part of the course.
