Visual Acuity Tests. Among the first tests performed in a comprehensive eye exam are visual acuity tests that measure the sharpness of your vision. These usually are performed using a projected eye chart to measure your distance visual acuity and a small, hand-held acuity chart to measure your near vision.
United States[edit] A preference in U.S. federal bankruptcy law is a transfer of property by a debtor to its creditor, on account of a pre-existing debt, that is made while the debtor is insolvent and gives the creditor more than it would obtain in a liquidation of the debtor's assets in a bankruptcy proceeding.
A bankruptcy is the greatest indicator of risk in a credit report, and so has the most serious and long lasting impact on your ability to obtain new credit. Therefore, filing for bankruptcy should always be a last resort. The two most common types of bankruptcy are Chapter 13 and Chapter 7. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you do not repay any of the debt owed, and the bankruptcy listing remains on the credit report for ten years from the date it is filed. Under Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you are responsible for paying back a portion of the debts that you owe through a debt repayment plan.
