occluders

Things that obstruct

Occluders are things that block or obstruct.

In dentistry, occluders are devices that hold dental casts in proper bite alignment.

In ophthalmology, an occluder is a patch or paddle used to cover one eye during vision testing.

In computer graphics, occluders are objects that block other objects from view, used to optimize rendering by skipping what the viewer can't see.
