  INTRODUCTION  Duo+ Chrome Also known as Bichrome test  Used to refine final Spherical power

  WHY DO WETAKE RED AND GREEN COLOR ONLY ?
• 4.
   Both colorsis same distance from yellow color  Complementary color Means Red and Green are opposite to each other on the color wheel .when complementary color viewed together ,they enhance to each other with brightness and clarity
• 5.
  PRINCIPAL  Chromatic Aberration Meansthe shorter wavelength of light (green) is refracted more by the eye optics Than the longer wavelength of light (red)

  CAN THE DUOCHROMTEST BE USED PRIOR TO CORRECTING THE REFRACTIVE COMPONENT ? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4361575/#:~:t ext=The%20Duochrome%20Test%20is%20based,light%20(i.e.%2C %20red).

  EMMETROPIA (R=G) HYPEROPIA (G>R) MYOPIA(R>G)
• 9.
  WHY HYPEROPIC PATIENT’SSEES G>R AND VICE VERSA ?
• 10.
  NOTE- BLACK RAY=YELLOWRAY
• 11.
   EMMETROPIA As weknow that in Emmetropic Pt the green color light focus infront of retina, the yellow light on the retina and the red color light away from the retina  HYPERMETROPIA In HMT Pt the plus power is deficient and we know that the property of plus power is converging the light rays and converging power is less in the HTM pt. So all the rays diverge So the green light diverge near the retina ,the yellow light away from the retina and red light is away to away from the retina that’s the reason green color is dominant
• 12.
   MYOPIA In themyopia the minus power is deficient and we know that the property of minus power is diverging the light rays and diverging power is less in the myopic Pt. So all the rays converge So the red light converge on the retina ,the yellow light infront of the retina and greenlight is infront of yellow light the retina that’s the reason green color is dominant

  THUMB RULE FORDUOCHROM  RED ADD MINUS (RAM) • Either over corrected hyperopia or under corrected myopia • Need Minus lens • Increased minus in 0.25 Ds steps until both are clear  GREEN ADD PLUS (GAP) • Either under corrected HTM or over corrected myopia • Need Plus lens • Increased Plus in 0.25 Ds steps until both clear
• 14.
  Q/A SESSION 1) Ifpt has -2.00Ds and saying that R>G So ______ lens we will add and the find correction will be _____ Ds 2) If pt has +4.75Ds and saying that G>R So _______lens we will add ,after that he is saying R>G ,what is the interpretation and final correction of the pt _______
