Course objectives
The successful passing of the course requires for students to be able to - list and describe basic techniques of handling optical information in the usual optical a ophthalmological equipment - explain the functionality of the usual optical a ophthalmological equipment and demonstrate the particular physical principle used - distinguish the level of approximation needed to describe the functionality of the usual optical a ophthalmological equipment - debate the utilisation of individual techniques in practice
