1 Annette was completely dazed. 2 Their highest concept of right conduct, in his case, was to get a job. 3 I'm five foot eleven in my socks. 4 Sally, herself, was quite content for a while to enjoy becoming acquainted with her son, washing and feeding him, taking him for walks in the bush, singing him to sleep. 5 Mr. de Morfe was as generous and hail-fellow-well-met with them as ever.' 6 I am cold. And I always was such a one for being warm. 7 Your resemblance to your mother is very striking. 8 He did not answer. I was aware again of that feeling of discomfort. 9 I hated myself. My question had been degrading, shameful. 10Their interests were hers as well as the interests of' everybody. 11 He's a good chap. He makes you feel it's worth while being alive. 12 Arrived here, his first act was to kneel down on a large stone beside the row of vessels, and to drink a copious draught from one of them. 13 Either course seemed unthinkable, without any connection with himself. 14 The nightmare of my life has come true. We are in danger of our lives. We are white people in a Chinese city. 15 The best thing is for you to move in with me and let the young lady stay -with your mother.

13.1.1 Read and translate the text

Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine which deals with the diseases and surgery of the visual pathways, including the eye, brain, and areas surrounding the eye, such as the lacrimal system and eyelids. By convention the term ophthalmologist is more restricted and implies a medically trained surgical specialist. Since ophthalmologists perform operations on eyes, they are generally categorized as surgeons.

The word ophthalmology comes from the Greek roots ophthalmos meaning eye and logos meaning word, thought or discourse; ophthalmology literally means “the science of eyes”. As a discipline, it applies to animal eyes also, since the differences from human practice are surprisingly minor and are related mainly to differences in anatomy or prevalence, not differences in disease processes. However, veterinary medicine is regulated separately in many countries and states provinces resulting in few ophthalmologists treating both humans and animals.

In the United States, 4 to 5 years of residency training after medical school are required, with the first year being an internship in surgery, internal medicine, pediatrics, or a general transition year. Most currently practicing ophthalmologists train in medical residency programs accredited by the Accreditation Council for

101

Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and are board certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology. Some physicians train in osteopathic medical schools may hold a Doctor of Osteopathy (“DO”) degree rather than an MD. The same residency and certification requirements for ophthalmology training must be fulfilled by osteopathic physicians. Completing the requirements of continuing medical education is mandatory for continuing licensure and re-certification. Professional bodies like the AAO and ASCRS organize conferences and help members through continuing medical education programs to maintain certification, in addition to political advocacy and peer support.

In the United Kingdom, there are four colleges that grant postgraduate degrees in ophthalmology. The Royal College of Ophthalmologists grants MRCOphth and FRCOphth (postgraduate exams), the Royal College of Edinburgh grants MRCSEd, the Royal College of Glasgow grants FRCS and Royal College of Ireland grants FRCSI. Work experience as a specialist registrar and one of these degrees Is required for specialisation in eye diseases.

American Board of Ophthalmology

The American Board of Ophthalmology (ABO) is an independent, non-profit organization responsible for certifying ophthalmologists (eye physicians and surgeons) in the United States of America. Founded in 1916, the ABO was the first American Board established to certify medical specialists.

The ABO is the founding member of the American Board of Medical Specialties. Originally, a combined board of Ophthalmology &. Otolaryngology, the specialties split into two board backed specialties in the 1960s.

Certification by the American Board of Ophthalmology is a voluntary process that involves a written and an oral examination. A candidate who successfully passes both the written qualifying and oral examinations becomes a Board Certified Diplomate of the American Board of Ophthalmology and is entitled to use the letters D.A.B.O. after his or her name.

Many types of equipment are used during an eye examination. Vision charts and machines are used to measure vision and visual fields. Trial (spectacle and contact) lenses or a phoropter and retinoscope may be used during refraction. Prism bars, small objects, and occluders may be used to assess eye movements and eye alignment. Test booklets, sheets, instructions, and pencils may be used for visual information processing examination.

102

Penlights and transilluminators can be used when assessing pupil light response, a neurological screening test. Specialty magnifiers, such as ophthalmoscopes and slit-lamp bio-microscopes, help with detailed inspection of external and internal anatomical ocular structures. Diagnostic eye drops may also be used to assess the various anatomical structures of the eyes.

Many optometrists use computerized equipment specifically designed to help diagnose and/or monitor certain ocular diseases. For example, many optometrists' offices have various visual field analyzers and tonometers that are helpful in diagnosing disease entity in early stages. Optometrists use digital imaging equipment, such as digital cameras to document appearance of the anterior and posterior parts of the eye. Corneal topographers are used to gather information on anterior aspects of the anatomy of the eye and cornea. Other sophisticated equipment such as Optical coherence tomography, GDX, or HRT II can be used for various disease testing and treatment.

1 John slowly nodded his head. 2 He's coming Saturday at one o'clock. 3 Lucia stopped them in their tracks with a stern command. 4 Sally was sitting on the front seat of the buggy, dumb and unhappy at being ignored. 5 I feel my own deficiencies too keenly to presume so far. 6 A few miners hung on, hoping the mines would reopen. 7 The first bar of gold raised hopes sky high. 8 She had to talk because of her desire to laugh. 9 John pushed back his huge chair and rose to his full height as if preparing to deliver an address. 10 He takes a glass and holds it to Nora to be filled. 11 Morris was walking too quickly for Sally to keep up with him. 12 The poor woman was annoyed with Morris for dumping his wife on her. 13 It was quite a long narrative. 14 Of course Laura and Jose were far too grown-up to really care about such things. 15 Now and then Gavin would stop to point out silently some rarity. 16 And for all her quiet manner, and her quiet smile, she was full of trouble. 17 The young schoolteacher's spirits rose to a decided height. 18 Evil report, with time and chance to help it, travels patiently, and travels far.

1 At the top of the stairs she paused to wave to him. 2 Marcellus accepted this information without betraying his amazement. 3 Having knocked on his door, she firmly entered Grandpa's room. 4 After waiting for a few minutes, he marched up the steps, closely followed by Demetrius. 5 Why do you always look at things with such dreadfully practical eyes? 6 David appeared in the open door, one hand clutching a sheaf of bills, under his other arm an account book. 7 That night I could scarcely sleep for thinking of it. 8 She did feel silly holding Moon's hand like that. 9 Then

Gallio cleared his throat, and faced his son with troubled eyes. 10 We have some exceptionally fine roses this year.11 Jonathan shook his head slowly, without looking up, his tongue bulging his cheek. 12 But it was of no use. Marcellus' melancholy was too heavy to be lifted. 13 Sally never would have been able to make a success of the dining-room but for the kindness and assistance of the men. 14 On being informed of the old man's flight, his fury was unbounded. 15 To be a complete artist it is not enough to be a painter, sculptor or architect. 16 Sally was furious with herself for having fainted. 17 With all her faults, she was candor herself. 18 The receiving overseer, Roger Kendall, though thin and clerical, was a rather capable man.
