49
Q

The “Near” triad :

A

The “Near” triad :––Accomodation
Miosis
Convergence

50
Q

Non- accommodated lens

A
  1. Ciliary body relaxes
  2. Zonular tension increases
  3. Anterior lens capsule flattens
  4. Lens more oval ,Lesser AP thickens
  5. Less diopteric power

*accommodated is the opposite

51
Q

Helmholtz theory of accommodation

A 
With accommodation
- ciliary muscle = contracts 
-zonular tension = decreases 
-lens shape = more spherical
Lens equatorial diameter = decreases
Central anterior lens capsule curvature = steepens 
Lens dioptric power = increases

58
Q

blind spot

A

59
Q

the fovea is the point where visual acuity is greatest

61
Q

-Organized into layers containing different types of cells and neural processes
Contains the Photoreceptors (Rods and Cones)

A

Retina

  • Light rays must pass through the ganglion cell and bipolar cell layers to reach the rods and cones.
  • The pigment epithelium absorbs light rays, preventing the reflection of rays back through the retina
  • Ganglion cells retina with are the only output neuron of the their axons forming the optic nerve
62
Q
