Based on your performance on this Optometry Board Part 1 Practice Test, you’re not yet ready for the NBEO® Part 1.
Keep your head up! Also, don’t focus on your estimated score, they mean essentially nothing at the start. Rarely does anyone start these exams and score well immediately, if that was the case then they wouldn’t even need to practice! These are ‘practice’ tests, meaning you’re practicing to improve your skills. If you continue to work hard and study, read and understand the solutions, practice with “OptometryBoards.com” daily and give it your best effort, we promise your score will improve. Review and learn for now, and the scores will come.

A 53 year old female presents to the clinic with bloody sputum, fatigue, and a chest x-ray which shows multiple light areas of varying size leading you to suspect a diagnosis of tuberculosis. After culturing, which of the following stains would you expect to be positive?
D. Acid fast staining
The pathogen causing tuberculosis is mycobacterium tuberculosis. The structure of this bacteria includes mycolic acid and a key characteristic of these long fatty acids is that it resists gram staining. Rose Bengal stains borders of herpes simplex and also aids in visualizing dead devitalized cells in the conjunctiva & cornea.

Using the picture please determine the letter that is consistent with bacterial resistance
C. The smaller the zone of inhibition the more bacterial resistant a drug is. The larger the zone of inhibition the more effective a drug is on the bacterial

An agent known to be effective against a wide variety of microbial species is defined as?
C. Broad spectrum.
C. Broad spectrum.
What type of agent would be at B?
B. Bacteriostatic. The number of bacteria does not grow as more of the drug is administered. C. is bactericidal since the number of bacteria decreases as the amount of drug and increase of time with the drug occurs.

Which organism is responsible for causing a positive venereal disease research laboratory test?
D. Treponema pallidum is the organism responsible for causing syphilis and is detected using a venereal disease research laboratory testing. Toxoplasma gondii is tested using IgG immunological testing. Neisseria gonorrhoeae is found by a simple urine test and may be detected with a Thayer-Martin chocolate agar stain.

What is the MOST common microorganism that causes glomerulonephritis?
A. Streptococcus Pyogenes. Remember this gram positive organism is beta-hemolytic meaning it has full hemolysis potential.It is classified as very opportunistic, breaking through the skin and secreing both endotoxins and exotoxins.
Staph aureus is the most common cause of blepharitis. Remember this organism is gram positive with features of being both catalase positive and coagulase positive. All other options are not microorganisms
Staphylococcus Epidermidis is the most common cause of postoperative endophthalmitis. Remember this organism is gram positive with features of being catalase positive but coagulase negative.
