Ch 15: Continued Flashcards
Emmetropia
Ciliary muscles are relaxed and lens is flat
Distant vision
Ciliary muscles in the ciliary body are relaxed
- lens is flat
Near vision
Ciliary muscles in the ciliary body contract
- lens is oval shaped
Path of light entering the eye
- Lights strikes cornea, then anterior chamber, then pupil, then lens.
- Like goes to the ventrious chamber, then light moves back to Fovia ventralious on retina.
What is the first layer for the path of light layer?
Ganglionic layer
What is the last layer of path of light?
Photo receptor layer
What is the first layer to receive action potential?
Ganglionic layer
What is the last layer to receive action potential?
Photo receptor layer
Definition of focal point
Like crosses together when entering in the retina
The nasal part of the left visual field is also called
Ipsilateral
The temporal part of left visual field is
Is contralateral when it hits optic chiasm
What is the visual pathway using left visual field?
- Light passes through optic nerve.
- Optic chiasm.
- Optic tracks.
- Superior colliculi.
- Lateral geniculate nuclei.
- Optic radiation
- Visual cortex in occipital lobe
Definition of astigmatism
Cornea Orleans, not uniformly curved
Cataract
Clouding of the lens
Diabetic retinopathy
Dysfunction of peripheral circulation
Glaucoma
Increased intraocular pressure by aqueous humor build up
