Given actions of the eye when looking at near and far objects, for at least 3 actions, students will state whether individual is looking at a near or far object, Given 5 sight defects, students will match at least 3 sight defects to its description correctly Given 5 sight defects, students will match at least 3 sight defects to its cause correctly . . .

Together with cornea form the protective layer of the eye Cornea The transparent part of the front of the eyeball. It refracts the light entering the eye onto the lens. Iris Controls the amount of light entering the eye by controlling the size of the pupil Pupil Allows light to enter the eye Lens Focuses light onto the retina Functions of Parts of the Eye Part Description/Function Vitreous Helps to maintain the shape of the eye Renee" Receive light that enters the eye to aid in the formation of an image. Optic Nerve Takes information from receptors to CNS. How Images are Formed e The muscles of the iris controls the size of the pupil to allow light to enter into the eye By accommodation, The lens helps to focus light onto the retina ¢ The light stimulates light sensitive cells on the retina * Rods ~ help to see black and white. © Cones ~ help to see colour. © Blind spot ~ absence of rods or cones. How Images are Formed © The lens is a convex lens, so when it focuses light onto the retina, the image formed is upside down (inverted). e Information is sent along the optic nerve to the brain. e The brain then processes the information, flips the image, and were able to see image right side up. How Images are Formed Convex iens turns The brain then fips Image formed on retina image upside down the image is upside down ‘andjsmaller Object Accommodation ‘* The lens focuses light onto the retina. At times has to change its shape to refract (bend) light ‘coming from near and far objects. Accommodation is the changing of the shape of the lens to focus on objects far away or close.

If left untreated can result in partial or total loss of vision ‘© Treatment: Treatment include eye drop to reduce fluid production or improve flow of fluid from the eye, Laser treatment or surgery to open drainage canals is also an option.
