Scheiner's Experiment. 



's Experiment or Test. A method of illus- 

 trating refrac- 

 tion and ac- 

 commodation 

 of the eye by 

 wo pin-holes in 

 ..iced at 

 istance 

 ipart than the 

 liameter of 

 he pupil. If 

 he eye is em- 

 netropic, or if 

 n accurate ac- 

 nodation 



he two sets of rays passing through the pin-holes 

 inite at c and form a single image. In a myopic eye 

 he focus of the rays is at /, q, and in an hyperopic 

 iye at m, n, and the object appears double. The same 

 ioubling of the image occurs when accommodating for 

 i point beyond or nearer than the object,
