21
Q

metabolism directed towards maintaining transparency of the lens epithelium, glucose enters the lens from the aqueous humor and is rapidly metabolized, hyperglycemia shunts glucose to the sorbitol pathway causing lens edema and acute refractive error changes such as blurred vision which may take 4-6 weeks to equilibrate after stabilization of blood sugars, chronically can lead to cell rupture and early cataract development in diabetics

A

lens metabolism

22
Q

cornea and lens, cornea is 2/3 of refractive power, lens is 1/3 of refractive power

A

refractive surface of the eye

23
Q

refractive power of the cornea and lens being different in one meridian versus the other

A

astigmatism

24
Q

ability of the ciliary muscle to contract or relax the zonules allowing lens to focus at near objects

A

accommodation

25
Q

farsighted, axial length too short

A

hyperopia

26
Q

nearsighted, axial length too long

A

myopia

27
Q

A

astigmatism

28
Q

decreased ability to focus at near objects with age, cannot be corrected with refractive surgery

A

presbyopia

29

A

pain or discomfort with ocular complaints

38

best corrected visual acuity problem

A

monocular vision`

39
