Preliminary QualifyingExaminationPrefaceThis book is designed to familiariseyou with your PreliminaryQualifying Examinations (PQE).The objectives for each section will becovered in detail along with hints andtips on the procedures you may wishto use. This guide is intended tocompliment, but not replace thevaluable practical teaching you willreceive from your training institute.Location and useful informationExam Application ProcessThe exam application forms can be downloaded from the examswebsite. Please be aware that the deadline for entry is 1st March for thesummer session and 1st October for the winter session.Location of Theory ExamsThe location of the theoretical exams (if applicable to you) is usually TheDoug Ellis Sports Centre, Birmingham City University, City North Campus,150 Wellhead Lane, Perry Barr, Birmingham, B42 2SY. Occasionally theremay be a venue change to The Pavillion, Moor Lane, Birmingham, B67AA, this is approximately 20 minutes drive from Birmingham city centre,and be aware parking is limited. So please check your original examletter and the ABDO examinations website to confirm your venue.Please note the theory venue is separate to the practical examinationsheld at Aston University.Location of Practical ExamsThe practical examinations are held in the Vision Sciences Building(Location 7) at Aston University campus, which is a 10 - 15 min walk fromthe city centre.We require all candidates to be present at least 30 mins before their starttime; we would recommend that you book accommodation close to thevenue. Please note there is no parking at the venue, unlessaccommodation is booked at Aston Business School.For the majority of students, you will need to be at the venue by 08.00am.On entering the building you will see a reception area, an ABDOrepresentative will be there to welcome you, check your photographicID and issue you with your timetable for the day.This reception area will be your holding area for the day, where you willfind toilets, a water dispenser and a drinks and snacks machine. For lunchoptions, there are several outlets and shops located on Aston Street.Please respect that this area is also used for Aston University clinic patientsand we therefore ask for noise to be kept to a minimum, rubbish to beplaced in the bins provided, the area kept clear and luggage stored inthe under stairs area (luggage left in this open area is at your own risk).By presenting yourself at the venue you are deeming yourself fit to sit theexamination. However we do appreciate that unforeseen circumstancescan happen on the day and therefore there will be an ABDOrepresentative contact number on your exam letter or you may leave amessage with the Vision Sciences reception on 0121 2044121.If you require reasonable adjustments to be made to your examexperience, please contact the exams department and complete theform on the website with as much notice as possible, so that thenecessary arrangements can be made.Association of British Dispensing Opticians

Aston UniversityVision Sciences BuildingPreparationWhat to take with you on the day: Your ABDO examinations letter Photographic ID Pen and calculator if requiredIn terms of equipment, you will see from the photographswithin this guide that fixed and rotating focimeters areprovided for each student sitting the examinations in theUK. In terms of rulers and tools; we will endeavour tosupply a wide range, but you are permitted to bring yourown if preferred.What to wear on the day:You will be seeing real patients so we expect smartbusiness attire to be worn, as you would in a real practice.The practical skills of a dispensing optician can be taughtwith relative ease. To achieve the consistency andaccuracy required we recommend you practice theacquired skill with a systematic approach on a regularbasis in the months leading up to your professionalexaminations.Aston University - Vision Sciences buildingAston University - Vision Sciences building receptionPage 4

Preliminary Qualifying ExaminationSection A: Single vision lensesSection A1: Use of lens measureObjective:15 minutesTo find the base curve, cross curve and sphere curve ontwo uncut lenses using the lens measure provided.Equipment provided: see picture opposite Lens measure Optical flat (mirror or glass plate) A fine-pointed lens marking pen Frame ruler Optical protractor A1 answer sheet Scrap paperMethod:1.Clearly enter your candidate number and box setnumber on the answer form.2.Select lens number 1.3.Zero the lens measure using the optical flat, toensure it reads zero. If the reading is not zero, youmust adjust, or compensate. If there is a fault withthe lens measure you can request for it to bechanged.4.Mark the optical centre of the lens using thefocimeter or protractor provided.5.Place the lens measure on the front surface of thelens. The central leg should coincide with the opticalcentre marking, and ensure that the lens measure isperpendicular to the lens surface. Gently rotate thelens, observing the lens measure scale for variation.6.If there is no variation then this is the sphericalsurface and should be recorded as the spherecurve value.7.If the reading varies with rotation, then this is thetoroidal surface, and both the minimum andmaximum values will need to be recorded. Thelowest numerical value is the base curve and thehighest is the cross curve.8.Then repeat the above for the back surface.9.Repeat this procedure for lens number 2.Usually the front surface is convex and will be recordedas a positive value(s). The back surface will usually beconcave and you should therefore be recording anegative value.Tolerances:For the base, cross and sphere curve: /-0.25 dioptres.Tips: When practising this section aim for 5 mins per lensallowing 5 mins to double check your answers. Ensure the signs of the curves make sense to the form ofthe lens All answers should be to two decimal places. Ensure this section is completed in the time allowed as itwill be collected during the examinationSuggested reading: Ophthalmic Lenses and Dispensing(M Jalie) Chapter 1 Practical Ophthalmic Lenses(M Jalie and L Ray) Experiments 5, 19, 20The next two pages show the form you will see in theexamination. Following that, we have created a table foryou to practice and record 24 toric lenses. We advise thatyou have your answers checked by your supervisor inpractice.Do not assume the toroidal surface is always on the backsurfaceEnsure that you have recorded the correct lensidentification number on your answer sheet and that yourvalues make sense in terms of the form of the lens.Be aware that some lens measures may measure morethan one index, which is clearly marked on the lensmeasure dial. All exam lens sets should be measured onthe 1.523 lens scale.Page 6

Preliminary Qualifying ExaminationSection A: Single vision lensesSection A2: Toric lenses (Focimetry)Objective:15 minutesTo measure and record the prescription of both lensesusing a manual focimeter. To measure and record thevertical position of both optical centres and the opticalcentre distance.Equipment provided: see picture opposite Manual focimeter A fine-pointed lens marking pen Frame ruler Lens cleaner Cleaning cloth A2 answer sheet Scrap paperMethod:1. Clearly enter your candidate number and box setnumber on the answer form2. Clearly mark your lenses R and L to avoid confusiondue to exam nerves3. If possible keep both eyes open when using thefocimeter4. Set up the eyepiece of the focimeter:Rotate the eyepiece to its maximum; ensure thetarget is out of focus by setting the scale to a highpositive or negative value. Now rotate theeyepiece inwards until the graticule is just in focus.Then set the power scale to zero. The resultingtarget and graticule should both be in focus.5. Starting with the right lens, place into the focimeterand centre accordingly.6. Record sphere and cylinder powers of the right lensand its axis.7. You can record either the plus or minus cyl form, butbe consistent in your cyl form and remain with thisformat throughout your revision and this section.8. Record the right lens axis accurately, and using thefocimeters marking device, dot the optical centre ofthe right lens.9. If necessary you may enhance the central dot withyour marker pen, but take care not to enlarge the dotwhich may cause inaccuracies in your measurements.10. Repeat for the left lens.11. Place the spectacles on your frame ruler using thevertical and horizontal scales to set each lens at thegeometric centre.12. Read the vertical position of the optical centresstating whether this falls above or below the horizontalcentre line.13. Repeat for the left lens.14. Place one optical centre on the zero of the scale andread the exact distance to the second optical centre,to measure the horizontal distance between thesetwo points.It will help you to maintain a routine to measure the rightlens first and then the left. Also note that the vertical positionof the optical centres will vary in the examination sets.Tolerances:Sphere and Cyl measurements: /-0.12 dipotre stepsAxis: measure to the nearest degree; do not round upVertical centres and optical centre distance: 1mmTips: When practising this section aim for 5 mins per lensallowing 5 mins to double check your answers Ensure all signs are present and record prescriptions totwo decimal places. Ensure this section is completed in the time allowed as itwill be collected during the examination Check on the exact meaning of horizontal centre lineand geometric centre.Suggested reading: Ophthalmic Lenses and Dispensing(M Jalie) Chapter 1 Practical Ophthalmic Lenses(M Jalie and L Ray) Experiment 49 Spectacle lenses Theory and Practice(Fowler and Petrie) Chapter 6The next two pages show the form you will see in theexamination.
