External Features Forehead Activator: Controls illumination inside the Vision Tester. It will only activate the lights when the subject maintains pressure against the activator, insuring the subject to be at a proper distance for testing. When forehead pressure is applied to the bar, the green "Ready" indicator will be illuminated on the control panel and the subject will be ready to be tested.

Vision Testing--The Right Way Look into the instrument and note what happens when the eye switches are ON and OFF. Experiment with viewing FAR point slides at NEAR point and vice versa, by dialing through all 12 slides. First, view all slides in the FAR point mode, and then repeat in the NEAR mode. Note that FAR test slides viewed at NEAR are upside-down, as are the NEAR test slides viewed at FAR.
