what prescription is legally blind?shanw413 Dec 06, 2005
shanw413. 1  I was wondering if it was possible to see what your vision is by your prescription.  2 legally blind in my state (Texas) is defined as having worse than 20/70 vision with the BETTER eye thru the best possible rx. in other words, even with the best glasses or contacts on, your good eye is still not 20/70. people tell me all the time that without their glasses on they are legally blind.


-
Is not about your prescription because no certain prescription means your legally blind. Also of your vision is 20/200 without glasses but when you put on your glasses and you can drive and see close to 20/20 you're not legally blind. The word for that would be annoying.


What prescription is considered legally blind?
Legal blindness relates to the best corrected vision after an eyeglass prescription is determined. You cannot look at the numbers on your eyeglass prescription to determine this. If the best you can do on an eye chart, with the best eyeglass correction, is 20/200, that is legal blindness in most states in the usa.


What eyeglass/contact prescription constitutes legal blindness?
For example, the shortsighted glasses prescription could be -10, -15 or -20, and as long as a person can see better than 6/60 or 20/200 (with a visual field of >20 degrees) while wearing those glasses then they are not blind. It is not the prescription that determines legal blindness. Legal blindness is visual acuity (usually determined using a standard eye chart) which is 20/200 or less in the better eye with the best possible correction (or a restricted visual field of 20 degrees or less). That best possible correction (i.e. the eyeglasses/contact prescription you mentioned) would vary depending on the person.


legally blind?KRB14 Nov 27, 2007
I am wondering if I am legally blind WITHOUT contacts or glasses. Although a lot of people use this term I'm legally blind without glasses that is totally inaccurate. First legally blind is defined in terms of BEST CORRECTED VISION. Meaning it cannot be applied to conditions corrected with glasses or contacts. Second while myopic individuals like you have poor distance vision without glasses you have 20/20 vision when holding something about 6-8 inches away.


"What eye prescription strength would be classified as ""legally blind""?"
Best corrected vision has to be 20/200 or worse in both eyes. Peripheral vision or visual field reduction also can qualify you. If your glasses and/or contact lenses improve your vision better than 20/200 in either eye then you are not legally blind. You can have a massive prescription yet be 20/20 with correction.


How bad can your eye prescription be if you are legally blind?
Note that the definition of legal blindness differs from country to country and that the criteria listed above are for the US. Legally blind has nothing to do with the prescription numbers. Legally blind means that your best vision cannot be corrected with glasses or contact lenses any better than 20/200. A normal person with 20/20 vision can see objects clearly that is 200 feet away from him, while the legally blind person can only see the object clearly that is 20 feet away from him.


Legally Blind and Contact Prescription
But the sure thing is that contact prescription has nothing to do with legal blindness. To be considered as legally blind, a person should only have a corrected vision of 20/200 or worse in their best seeing eye and the vision field is confined to only 20 degrees. And you are not legally blind if your vision can be corrected to 20/20 with the help of contact lenses, glasses, etc. So no matter what your prescription is, be it 0.0, -5.75 or even -25, you are not legally blind if your best corrected vision is better than 20/200.

"What eye prescription strength would be classified as ""legally blind""?"
The concept of legal blindness is always the best vision even with glasses. Therefore, a patient can have a low prescription and have some disease that prevents seeing 20/200 (Snellen minimum vision for most definitions of legal blindness.

The History of the Word âCiaoâ & Why You Shouldnât Say it in Italy
(That dialect has proven to be a rich source of words we use in English, too, but thatâs a subject for another article.) In the Venetian dialect, the phrase s-ciÃ o vostro means âI am your slaveâ â and over time, the phrase was abbreviated to simply s-ciÃ o, while retaining the same meaning.

Literature also tells us, that ARABELLA is being used in ethnic communities - using Arab as the foreword. In the animal world - a Siamese cat recently won a Top Cat award, with the name BELLA.

What Cats Make the Chirping Sound?
When it comes to the question of which cats make chirping sounds, the answer is -- drum roll -- potentially all of them!

Well relating on my own bird experience, there could be many reasons why a bird is chirping so loudly.

If you have a bird and its in a cage, inside all day, then take the bird out side.

One theory for chirping is cats use it to signal to others it has spotted prey. That does not seem to be entirely logical because cats remain quiet when they are stalking.


"Why do cats ""chirp"" when they see a bird?"
I've had cats all my life. And what i get from them chirping ... they are just overly excited, THEY WANT THAT BIRD! lol Just like when i open a can of wet food, they know everytime .. and start meowing, because they want it so bad. That is my opinion.

Just because the name includes the word plastic doesn't mean patients who have this surgery end up with a face full of fake stuff. The name isn't taken from the synthetic substance but from the Greek word plastikos, which means to form or mold (and which gives the material plastic its name as well). Plastic surgery is a special type of surgery that can change a person's appearance and ability to function. 1  Reconstructive procedures correct defects on the face or body.  Cosmetic (also called aesthetic) procedures alter a part of the body that the person is not satisfied with.


-
Procedures and healing times vary, so you'll want to do your research into what's involved in your particular procedure and whether the surgery is reconstructive or cosmetic.

Detrital & Chemical Sedimentary Rocks: Definition & Differences
So you can say that detrital sedimentary rocks are composed of rock fragments that have been weathered from pre-existing rocks. Because these rocks are created by the breakdown of other rocks, they are the most common rocks we see on the surface of the earth.


Sedimentary Rocks
Sedimentary Rocks. Weathering processes break down rock into finer and finer material and such material is often transported and deposited as sediment. The processes of compaction and cementation of this sediment over a long period of time turn the sediment into rock.

Chemical sedimentary rocks are a different type of sedimentary rock because they are not made up of weathered sediment grains; instead they are composed of mineral crystals that form out of solution. In other words, chemical sedimentary rocks contain crystals and other elements that have been dissolved out of water.


-
Classification of Sedimentary Rocks (Part 1). Sedimentary rocks are classified based on their texture and composition. Detrital sediment has a clastic (broken) texture. Chemical and organic sediments have a non-clastic texture, and are classified based solely on their composition.


-
If the coarse-grains are angular, the rocks are called breccia. Left: conglomerate; right: sedimentary breccia (Photographs by Stan Johnson). Conglomerates (left) are coarse-grained sedimentary rocks with rounded grains.


Sedimentary Rocks
Sedimentary rocks are divided into two broad classes, detrital sedimentary rocks and chemical sedimentary rocks as described below. Sedimentary rocks make up perhaps only five percent or so of the outer 16 kilometers (10 miles) of the Earth (Lutgens and Tarbuck), but the majority of surface rocks are sedimentary.


Sedimentary Rocks
About 75% of the rock outcroppings on continents are sedimentary rocks. Detrital sedimentary rocks are those for which the material has been transported as solid particles. The particles themselves may have derived from either physical weathering or chemical weathering. Sedimentation means settling from a fluid, either water or air.

Cost Advantage and Differentiation Advantage. Competitive advantage is created by using resources and capabilities to achieve either a lower cost structure or a differentiated product. A firm positions itself in its industry through its choice of low cost or differentiation.This decision is a central component of the firm's competitive strategy.ccording to the resource-based view, in order to develop a competitive advantage the firm must have resources and capabilities that are superior to those of its competitors. Without this superiority, the competitors simply could replicate what the firm was doing and any advantage quickly would disappear.

To have the potential of sustained competitive advantage, a firm resource must have four attributes 1  --. it must be valuable, in the sense that it exploit opportunities and/or neutralizes threats in a firm's environment. 2  it must be rare among a firm's current and potential competition.3  it must be imperfectly imitable.-. A business organization with a competitive advantage is more profitable than its rivals while this profitability exceeds its cost of capital. Profits in excess of the cost of capital are called economic rent. Sustained economic rents are prima facie evidence of a competitive advantage.

Parkinson's disease
Parkinson's disease is more common in older people, with most cases occurring after the age of 50; when it is seen in young adults, it is called young onset PD (YOPD). The main motor symptoms are collectively called parkinsonism, or a parkinsonian syndrome. The disease can be either primary or secondary.


Is Alzheimer's disease related to Parkinson's disease?
These give the Parkinsonâs patient a typical mask-like face. There is an interesting reciprocal relationship between Parkinsonâs and Alzheimerâs disease, as follows: Late in Parkinsonâs disease symptoms of dementia develop in perhaps fifteen percent of such patients.


Is Alzheimer's disease related to Parkinson's disease?
One main difference between the diseases is how they affect the body: 1  Alzheimerâs disease primarily affects memory. 2  In advanced stages, the disease also impairs motor functions. 3  Parkinsonâs disease primarily affects movement and coordination. 4  In advanced stages, it may impair memory and other cognitive functions.


Treatment of Parkinsonâs Disease
Parkinson's disease is the most common form of parkinsonism and is usually defined as primary parkinsonism, meaning parkinsonism with no external identifiable cause. In recent years several genes that are directly related to some cases of Parkinson's disease have been discovered.


What is the Connection Between Parkinson's and Dementia?
Parkinson's is a disease which affects the brain, causing problems with movement. The muscles become stiff and sometimes shake, and the person moves more slowly than normal. Parkinson's and dementia are linked because, in some people with Parkinson's disease, dementia may occur as the illness progresses. Dementia is a disorder in which brain function deteriorates, leading to difficulties with remembering, planning and organizing, recognizing people and things, and communicating with others.

Anti-Parkinson's medications are typically less effective at controlling symptoms in Parkinson plus syndromes. Faster progression rates, early cognitive dysfunction or postural instability, minimal tremor or symmetry at onset may indicate a Parkinson plus disease rather than PD itself.


What is the Connection Between Parkinson's and Dementia?
Ad. There are a number of causes of dementia, with Alzheimer's being the most common example. The symptoms of dementia vary depending on the cause, and in the case of Parkinson's and dementia, there are difficulties in the areas of reasoning, planning, making decisions and adapting to changes in routine.


Is Alzheimer's disease related to Parkinson's disease?
Both Alzheimerâs disease and Parkinsonâs disease are diseases of the brain. Both may cause forgetfulness. However, the similarities end there. In fact, researchers believe that even the memory disorder that results from Parkinsonâs is distinct from the memory disorder that Alzheimerâs causes.

Pineal gland
The pineal gland, also known as the pineal body, conarium or epiphysis cerebri, is a small endocrine gland in the vertebrate brain.early all vertebrate species possess a pineal gland. The most important exception is the hagfish, which is often thought of as the most primitive extant vertebrate. Even in the hagfish, however, there may be a pineal equivalent structure in the dorsal diencephalon.


Anatomy
The pineal gland, also known as the pineal body, is an important endocrine gland that produces the hormone melatonin.Melatonin plays a key role in the sleep/wake cycle and the bodyâs response to sunlight.he pineal gland is a small, pinecone-shaped mass of glandular tissue about 1/3 of an inch (8 mm) long. It is attached directly to the brain along the bodyâs midline at the union of the superior colliculi of the midbrain and the lobes of the thalamus....


What Is the Pineal Gland?
Print. Share. The pineal gland is a small, pinecone-shaped endocrine gland located near the center of the brain between the two hemispheres. Itâs small, only 5-8mm, and is sometimes visible in head scans as calcification can occur due to toxin or fluoride accumulation.he pineal gland is part of the endocrine system. Like other endocrine system glands, such as the pituitary and thyroid, its primary function is hormone secretion, specifically, secretion of melatonin. Melatonin is important for sexual development, metabolic function, and sleep-wake cycle regulation.


Learn About the Function of the Pineal Gland
Pineal Gland: The pineal gland is a pine cone shaped gland of the endocrine system. A structure of the diencephalon of the brain, the pineal gland produces several important hormones including melatonin. Melatonin influences sexual development and sleep-wake cycles.he pineal gland connects the endocrine system with the nervous system in that it converts nerve signals from the sympathetic system of the peripheral nervous system into hormone signals. Function: The pineal gland is involved in several functions of the body including: 1  Secretion of the Hormone Melatonin.


Pituitary & Pineal Glands
Pineal Gland. The pineal gland, also called pineal body or epiphysis cerebri, is a small cone-shaped structure that extends posteriorly from the third ventricle of the brain. The pineal gland consists of portions of neurons, neuroglial cells, and specialized secretory cells called pinealocytes.he pituitary gland or hypophysis is a small gland about 1 centimeter in diameter or the size of a pea. It is nearly surrounded by bone as it rests in the sella turcica, a depression in the sphenoid bone. The gland is connected to the hypothalamus of the brain by a slender stalk called the infundibulum.


The Pineal Gland and Melatonin
The pineal gland is a small organ shaped like a pine cone (hence its name). It is located on the midline, attached to the posterior end of the roof of the third ventricle in the brain. The pineal varies in size among species; in humans it is roughly 1 cm in length, whereas in dogs it is only about 1 mm long.he pineal gland or epiphysis synthesizes and secretes melatonin, a structurally simple hormone that communicates information about environmental lighting to various parts of the body.


What does the Pineal Gland do?
The pineal gland is an endocrine gland, like the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, adrenal gland, and pancreas. Like other endocrine glands, it secretes a hormone -- in this case melatonin.The pineal gland was the last endocrine gland to have its function unveiled, partially because of its small size, roughly that of a pea, and its structural uniformity.he pineal gland is located near the center of the brain. Shamans have claimed that the pineal gland is a connection between the earthly realm and a spirit world. Endocrine glands include the adrenal gland. The pineal gland secretes melatonin, which promotes sleep.

The medical profession describes the pineal gland as being: âa small endocrine gland in the vertebrate brain that produces the serotonin derivative melatonin, a hormone that affects the modulation of wake/sleep patterns and seasonal functions.The pineal gland is a midline structure shaped like a pine cone, and is often seen in plain skull X-rays, as it is often calcified; calcification has been shown in one small study to correlate with the accumulation of fluoride.â The pine cone shape of the pineal gland is a very interesting topic.


An Overview of the Pineal Gland
Anatomy of the Pineal Gland. Located near the center of the brain, the pineal gland is a very small organ shaped like a pine cone (which is where it gets its name). Itâs reddish-gray and about 1/3 inch long. Pineal cells and neuroglial cells (which support the pineal cells) mainly comprise the gland. Of the endocrine organs, the function of the pineal gland was the last discovered. 2  Located deep in the center of the brain, the pineal gland was once known as the âthird eye.â. 3  The pineal gland produces melatonin, which helps maintain circadian rhythm and regulate reproductive hormones.
