Myopia

1 / 32

33 Terms

1

Myopia

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

New cards
2

Hypermetropia

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

New cards
3

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.

New cards
4

Lens in the eye

Convex or converging

New cards
5

Corrective lens for myopic eye

Concave lens or diverging lens

New cards
6

Corrective lens for hypermetropic eye

Convex lens or converging lens

New cards
7

Cataract

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

New cards
8

Cataract defect can be cured by

Cataract surgery

New cards
9

Corrective lens for presbyopia is

Bi focal lens

New cards
10

Lens forbi focal lenses

Upper portion is concave lens and lower portion is convex lens

New cards
11

Length of diameter of the eyeball

2.3

New cards
12

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

New cards
13

Light enters the eye throught a thin membrane called

Cornea

New cards
14

Refraction of light rays entering the eye occurs at

The outer surface of the Cornea

New cards
15

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

Iris

New cards
16

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

Pupil

New cards
17

Near point for the normal eye

25 cm

New cards
18

Farthest point for normal eye

Infinity

New cards
19

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

Far point of the eye

New cards
20

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

Near point of the eye

New cards
21

When light is very bright

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

New cards
22

When the light is dim

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

New cards
23

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

power of accommodation

New cards
24

When the Ciliary muscle are relaxed

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

New cards
25

When the ciliary muscles contract

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

New cards
26

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

Rod shaped cell

New cards
27

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

Cone shaped cells

New cards
28

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

New cards
29

In myopia the image forms

Infront of retina

New cards
30

In hypermetropia the image forms

Behind the retina

New cards
31

Cause for hypermetropic defect

  1. Eye ball is too small

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

New cards
32

The eye lens forms which type of image

Real and inverted

New cards
33

Function of vitreous humour

Maintain the shape of the eye ball
