New cards

Myopia

The eye defect where a person can see near by objects distinctly but cannot see the objects at a distance.

2
New cards

Hypermetropia

The eye defect where a person can see distant objects Clearly but can't see nearby objects clearly.

3
New cards

Presbyopia

This is an eye defect which happens with aging, in this eye defect a person can't see neither distant objects nor objects that are nearby.

4
New cards

Lens in the eye

Convex or converging

5
New cards

Corrective lens for myopic eye

Concave lens or diverging lens

6
New cards

Corrective lens for hypermetropic eye

Convex lens or converging lens

7
New cards

Cataract

The crystalline lens people at old age becomes milky and cloudy which causes partial or complete loss of vision.

8
New cards

Cataract defect can be cured by

Cataract surgery

9
New cards

Corrective lens for presbyopia is

Bi focal lens

10
New cards

Lens forbi focal lenses

Upper portion is concave lens and lower portion is convex lens

11
New cards

Length of diameter of the eyeball

2.3

12
New cards

The lens system of human eye forms an Image on a light sensitive screen which is a delicate membrane having enormous number of light-sensitive cells called

Retina

13
New cards

Light enters the eye throught a thin membrane called

Cornea

14
New cards

Refraction of light rays entering the eye occurs at

The outer surface of the Cornea

15
New cards

A dark muscular diaphragm that controls the size of pupil is called

Iris

16
New cards

Which part of the eye regulates and controls the amount of light entering the eye

Pupil

17
New cards

Near point for the normal eye

25 cm

18
New cards

Farthest point for normal eye

Infinity

19
New cards

The farthest point upto which the eye can objects Clearly is called

Far point of the eye

20
New cards

The minimum distance at which objects can be seen most distinctly without strain is called

Near point of the eye

21
New cards

When light is very bright

The iris contracts the pupil to allow less light to enter the eye

22
New cards

When the light is dim

The iris expand the pupil to allow more light to enter the eye

23
New cards

The ability of eye lens to adjust its focal length is called

power of accommodation

24
New cards

When the Ciliary muscle are relaxed

The lens becomes thin,the curvatureof eye lens decreases and the focal length increases

25
New cards

When the ciliary muscles contract

The lens becomes thick, the curvature of eye lens increases and the focal length decreases

26
New cards

The cells in retina that respond to brightness or intensity of light

Rod shaped cell

27
New cards

The cells in retina that respond to colour of light that enables us to distinguish between different colors

Cone shaped cells

28
New cards

Reasons for myopic defect

  1. Increase in the length of eye ball/ distance of retina and eye ball Increases

  2. Decrease in the focal length in the eye lens when the eye is fully relaxed

29
New cards

In myopia the image forms

Infront of retina

30
New cards

In hypermetropia the image forms

Behind the retina

31
New cards

Cause for hypermetropic defect

  1. Eye ball is too small

  2. the focal length of the eye lens is too long

32
New cards

The eye lens forms which type of image

Real and inverted

33
New cards

Function of vitreous humour

Maintain the shape of the eye ball
