I thought it was for both eyes, not just one!

Fannie 12 months ago

Yup, twice daily is standard for this med.

Berry 12 months ago

Wait, why are we shaking eye drops?

Henriette 12 months ago

Definitely option C for the right eye.

Timolol is for eye pressure, not ears!

I definitely remember that "gtt." means drops, but I’m not sure if we need to specify which eye in the instructions. I guess it could be A or C?

I feel a bit confused about the "shake well" part. I don't recall if we need to shake the bottle for eye drops. Could it be option D?

Fannie 1 year ago

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to identify the correct eye for drops. I think it was always about the "o.d." meaning right eye.

Remona 1 year ago

I think the prescription says "o.d." which means right eye, so maybe it's option C? But I'm not entirely sure.

This is a tricky one. I'll need to sketch out the calculations to make sure I don't miss anything. Careful work will be important on this question.

This seems like a straightforward question about the accuracy of property appraisals. I'll carefully read through the options and think about what makes the most sense based on my understanding of the topic.

Ira 1 year ago

Hmm, the wording is a bit confusing. I'm not sure I fully understand the situation being described. I'll need to re-read it a few times.

I think it's 5 minutes, but I'm not completely sure. Didn't we go over this in our study group?
