| RFR | rapid fluid resuscitation; refraction |
| refraction | <physics> Bending of waves as they pass from a medium having one refractive index to a medium (or region within a medium) having a different refractive index. (09 Oct 1997) |
|---|---|
| refraction, angle of | <microscopy> The acute angle between the normal to a refracting surface at the point of incidence, and the refracted ray. (05 Aug 1998) |
| refraction, ocular | Refraction of light effected by the media of the eye. It also includes the determination of the refractive state and refractive correction. (12 Dec 1998) |
| refractionist | A person trained to measure the refraction of the eye and to determine the proper corrective lenses. (05 Mar 2000) |
| refractionometer | <optics> A contrivance for exhibiting and measuring the refraction of light. Origin: Refraction. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| angle of refraction | <optics> The angle that a ray leaving a refracting medium makes with a line drawn perpendicular to the surface of this medium. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| static refraction | Refraction without accommodation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| double refraction | <microscopy> The refraction of light in two slightly different directions to form two rays or vector components. Each ray is polarized, and their vibration directions are perpendicular to each other. Furthermore, each ray has a different velocity, and therefore a different refractive index. See: birefringence. (05 Aug 1998) |
| dynamic refraction | Refraction of the eye during accommodation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| index of refraction | <physics> For a given wavelength, this is the ratio of the velocity of light in vacuum (c) to the velocity of light in a refractive material (for example, glass, plasma, etc.). (09 Oct 1997) |
| law of refraction | For two given media, the sine of the angle of incidence bears a constant relation to the sine of the angle of refraction. Synonym: Descartes' law, Snell's law. (05 Mar 2000) |
