24
Q

What is the reflex of accommodation?

A

focusing on near objects

25
Q

How does accommodation occur?

A

by a concerted action of the ciliary muscle on the zonule fibers which hold the lens in place

26
Q

Ciliary muscles are a ring of smooth muscle that upon [contraction/relaxation], relaxes the tension on the zonular fibers and allows the lens to become [flatter/more spherical]

A

contraction
more spherical

A

parasympathetic
CN III - oculomotor n.
