PROBLEM: How many students in the class have better than 20/20 (6/6) eyesight?
PREDICTION:
MATERIALS: Snellen eye chart, astigmatism chart
Measure 20 feet (6 meters) away from the eye chart. Have your partner stand on that line. Point to several of the lines on the chart and record which lines they can see and which ones they cannot. Tabulate what eyesight you think the student has. Have your instructor check your conclusion. Use your partner's lab sheet to record the information.
