Q: How to use an autorefractor?

A: Steps to use a table-top autorefractor:

The patient should align his/her chin and forehead on the chin and forehead rest, respectively.  

The height or level of the rest should be varied depending on the patient’s requirements.

The patient should then focus on the image shown in the automated refractor.

The measurement of each eye focusing should be captured separately by adjusting the sensor level until there is a

clear view of the eye on the monitor.

The automated refraction results of the eye can then be printed out after repeating the same process thrice.
