Rubin's Eye and Vision Lab
Using Rubin’s
Eye and Vision Lab, your students won’t have to rely on visualization —
they’ll actually see how the human eye functions!
Through a series of engaging
hands-on, eyes-on experimental activities, your students will not only witness
how the human visual organ functions, they will also recreate common visual
disorders and discover how to correct them.
Using the Rubin’s eye lab they
will first demonstrate how crisp, inverted images are projected onto the retina
during normal vision (emmetropia.) Next they’ll discover how the internal lens
of the eye must adjust its focal length in order to bring near objects into
sharp focus (accommodation.)
They will go on to reproduce each
of the following visual disorders: • Myopia (nearsightedness) • Hyperopia
(farsightedness) • Presbyopia (age-related near-vision failure to accommodate)
• Astigmatism (blurred or distorted vision at any distance due to irregular
corneal curvature)
For each disorder, your students will in turn have to implement appropriate
corrective steps — reinforcing the learning experience as they do so.
The self-contained Rubin’s Eye Lab package incorporates:
- An optical
bench with track and indicator markings for experimental repeatability.
- Object slide holder.
- Anterior eye hemisphere with integral corneal lens
holder and patented trigger — focusable internal lens.
- Posterior eye
hemisphere with retina.
- Long life halogen light source (20W, 115V, 50/60 Hz)
- Four adjustable supports for positioning components on bench.
- Set of
five interchangeable color-coded corneal lenses made of impact-resistant optical
plastic: (1) plano lens (clear) (2) concave lens (pink) (3) convex lens (gray)
(4 & 5) two astigmatic (toric) lenses (yellow) • Handy lens caddy for
stowing corneal lenses. • Step-by-step illustrated instructional guide to
experiments and additional suggested activities.
Overall dimensions: 18Lx41/2Wx8H inches (46x11x20cm)
