The individual will be asked to read random letters displayed on a video projector. To test if an individual needs glasses the refraction test is performed‚ flipping different lenses amongst the eyes asking which appears better. Peripheral vision is checked and pupils are looked at with pen- lights. Often eye drops are used to dilate the pupils‚ allowing the doctor to view the back

Although global temperatures fluctuate naturally‚ over the past 50 years the average global temperature has augmented at its fastest rate in recorded history. The emission of greenhouse gasses such as Carbon Dioxide (CO2)‚ Nitrous Oxide (N2O) and Methane (CH4) render the Earth’s atmosphere more transparent to visible radiation from the sun than to infrared radiation emitted and reflected from the planet’s surface (NASA Earth Observatory). With this extra heat trapped within the atmosphere‚ the temperature
