chromosomes.
2. Cell is the basic unit of life.
3. Meiosis makes sex cells.

chromosomes.
5. Humans are complex organisms
made up of billions of cells.

What is an organ?
Organ is a group of tissues
with similar functions.

What is a gland?
A gland is an organ which
produces and releases
substances that perform a
specific function in the body.
• The Meibomian, or
Tarsal Glands

responsible for the supply

of meibum, an oily
substance that prevents
evaporation of the eye's
tear film. Meibum
prevents tear spillage
onto the cheek, trapping
tears between theoiled
edge and the eyeball, and
makes the closed lids
airtight.
 FOUR COMMON VISION PROBLEMS

Myopia (Nearsightedness)

This happens when you have an elongated

eyeball, a thick lens, or rigid or highly
curved cornea. They may cause light that enters
your eyes to deposit in front of the
retina instead of directly on it. Difficulties seeing
distant objects are the hallmark sign of
this problem. Prescription eyewear and refractive
surgeries may help correct this error.
2. Hyperopia (Farsightedness)
• As the opposite of myopia, this
refractive error happens when
you have an unusually
• short eyeball. A less curved
cornea and thinner lens may also
lead to this problem,
• directing the received light to the
back portion of your retina. You
may have a blurred
• close-range eyesight yet intact
distant vision when this happens.
We may suggest
• wearing corrective eyeglasses or
contact lenses to improve your
vision. We may also
• check if you can be a good
candidate for laser eye surgery.
3. Astigmatism
• Your eyeballs normally have a
symmetrical round shape. In this
visual acuity error,
• however, the cornea develops a
football-like form. This may lead
to uneven light
• distribution, producing blurred or
distorted images when looking at
objects up-close or at
• a distance. We may recommend
using toric lenses as part of your
management. Its
• sliced donut shape allows
different refractive levels for your
improved vision.
4. Presbyopia

• A decline in your visual capacity may be expected as

you age. Your lens may start to
• lose its flexibility, resulting in ineffective light
bending. This could lead to focusing
• problems, particularly when looking at nearby
objects.
