The Human Eye. A convex lens is the type of lens found in your eye. The lens takes light rays spreading out from objects and focuses the light, through.
The Human Eye. In many ways, the human eye is similar to a camera. Light enters through an opening, is focused through a lens, passes through a light-tight.
 The lens of the eye is a transparent object behind the iris that changes shape to help adjust the eye's focus to see near or distant objects.

1. Layers of the eye: Sclera 14.4 Sense of Vision 1. Layers of the eye: Sclera _______ – the white of the eye that maintains eye shape Cornea: transparent portion of the sclera that is important in refracting light Pupil: a hole that allows light into the eyeball

2. Layers of the eye: Choroid 14.4 Sense of Vision 2. Layers of the eye: Choroid Choroid – middle layer that absorbs light rays not absorbed by the retina ____: donut-shaped, colored structure that regulates the size of the pupil _______ body: structure behind the iris that contains a muscle that controls the shape of the lens Lens – attached to the ciliary body; refracts and focuses light rays

The lens The lens is a flexible, transparent, and concave structure. 14.4 Sense of Vision The lens The lens is a flexible, transparent, and concave structure. Visual accommodation occurs when the lens changes shape to focus light on the retina and form an image. As we age, the lens loses elasticity, and we use glasses to correct for this.

3. Layers of the eye: Retina 14.4 Sense of Vision 3. Layers of the eye: Retina The retina contains photoreceptors called rods and cones. _____ are sensitive to light. ______ require bright light and respond to wavelengths of light (color). The ______________ is an area of the retina densely packed with cones where images are focused.

3. Layers of the eye: Retina 14.4 Sense of Vision 3. Layers of the eye: Retina Sensory receptors from the retina form the optic nerve that takes impulses to the brain. The ___________ is where the optic nerve attaches; it lacks photoreceptors. 7

Photoreceptors of the retina 14.4 Sense of Vision Photoreceptors of the retina Rods They contain a visual pigment called rhodopsin. Rods are important for peripheral and night vision. Vitamin A is important for proper functioning. Cones They are located mostly in the fovea. Cones allow us to detect fine detail and color. 3 different kinds of cones containing red, green, and blue pigments.

Summary of eye structures 14.4 Sense of Vision Summary of eye structures

Abnormalities of the eye 14.4 Sense of Vision Abnormalities of the eye _______________ – genetic abnormality in which colors, usually red and green, cannot be distinguished; most common in males __________ – lens of the eye is cloudy __________ – fluid pressure builds up in the eye

Abnormalities of the eye 14.4 Sense of Vision Abnormalities of the eye Astigmatism – condition in which the cornea or lens is uneven, leading to a fuzzy image ____sightedness – eyeball is too long, making it hard to see far away objects ____sightedness – eyeball is too short, making it hard to see near objects 13

Nearsightedness normal eyeball Short eye; rays focus behind retina when viewing close objects. Convex allows subject to see close objects. b. Farsightedness Figure 14.11 How corrective lenses correct vision problems. Uneven cornea; rays do not focus evenly. Uneven lens allows subject to see objects clearly. c. Astigmatism
