  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We performed refractometry in 165 out of 405 patients within the framework of volunteer medical activities in Vanuatu.We used a hand-held refractometer,RetinomaxR.The refractive status of 165 right eyes were :hyperopia 75 eyes,emmetropia 31 eyes and myopia 59 eyes.The refractive errors ranged from+2.75 D to-5.00 D, average+0.05 D±1.01D. The current refractometer was easy to operate, portable and free errors by individual examiners. It could be used in daylight and gave data in printing. It was thus possible to do refractometry easily, rapidly and correctly in remote areas if only power source was available. It was also useful in prescribing eyeglasses and examination after cataract surgery.
