Vision 1 Flashcards
This type of spherical lens will converge light rays
Convex
This type of spherical lens will diverge the light rays
Concave
This type of lens will give you a focal line
Cylindrical
If you increase the power of the lens, it will give you what kind of focal length
Shorter focal length
Power of the lens is determined by what unit
Diopter
Refractive power of spherical convex lens will give you
A positive power
If you have 10 diopter, the focal point is
Nearer to the lens
It can dilate and constrict to control how much light can enter
Pupil
This is where the object will be registered
Retina
Is has the highest capability of bending light rays or highest refractive power
Cornea
This holds the lens to maintain its shape
Suspensory ligament
What happens if the suspensory ligament is tight or tense
It would decrease the convexity
Decrease the power of the lens
If the ciliary muscles contracts what will happen to the lens
The lens would be more convex
Increase the power of the lens
This condition is called loss of accommodation by the lens
Presbyopia
Normal vision is called
Emmetropia
