Specific competences (CE):>>Module 2: optics competences

  • CES27 : Understand lens selection, manufacture and design processes.
  • CES29 : Understand and manage the techniques for the analysis, measurement, correction and control of the effects of compensating optical systems on the visual system, in order to optimise their design and adaptation.
  • CES30 : Capacity to calculate the geometric parameters of specific visual compensation systems: low vision, intraocular lenses, contact lenses and ophthalmic lenses.
  • CES37 : Understand the Spanish health care system and the basic aspects related to health service management, basically those associated with health care and rehabilitation.
  • CES39 : Acquire the ability to carry out the profession respecting the autonomy of the patients, their beliefs and culture, as well as their determining genetic, demographic and socioeconomic factors, applying the principles of social justice and understanding the ethical implications in the context of a world in change.

 

Specific competences (CE):>>Module 3: vision system pathology competences

  • CES40 : Understand the properties and functions of the different elements making up the visual system.
  • CES51 : Understand the epidemiological models of the main visual pathologies.

  • CES63 : Understand current ocular surgery techniques and be able to carry out the ocular tests included in pre- and post-operative examinations.
  • CES64 : Understand, apply and interpret the instrument-based tests related to visual health problems.
  • CES65 : Understand and apply optical and non-optical assistance for low vision.
  • CES66 : Understand the properties of contact lenses and ocular prostheses.
  • CES67 : Understand the geometry and physicochemical properties of contact lenses and associate them with specific ocular and refractive peculiarities.
