Define entrance pupil, exit pupil, aperture stop, field stop.
Entrance pupil- Image of the aperture stop formed by all the lenses in FRONT of it.
Exit pupil- the image of the aperture stop formed by all the lenses BEHIND it.
Aperture stop- physical entity that limits the amount of LIGHT entering the system
Field stop- physical entity that limits the SIZE of the object that can be viewed by the system.

When an ophthalmic topical drug contacts the tear film, the pH of the tears alters the drug to which of the following
Non0Ionized.
The pH of the tears is 7.54. When drugs contact the tear film, the tears alter the drug into a non ionized form (hydrophobic) which promotes absorption across the hydrophobic corneal epi and endothelial.
Ionized/hydrophillic drugs are less likely to be absorbed.

Spinothalamic
Medial lemniscus- touch, pressure, vibration from the body.

Trigeminothalamic- pain and temp from the face.
Spinothalamic- pain and temp from the body.

How do photoreceptors collect photons/how does color vision work
A wavelength of a photon determines the probability that the photon is absorbed by a photoreceptor.
Based on the principle of univariance- once the photon is absorbed, all information regarding the wavelength of the photon is lost.
A single photoreceptor cannot discriminate color. Color vision is based on the relative responses of different photoreceptors based on the number of photons each absorbed.
