Figure 17-6 The Pupillary Muscles
Pupillary constrictor (sphincter) Pupil Pupillary dilator (radial) The pupillary dilator muscles extend radially away from the edge of the pupil. Contraction of these muscles enlarges the pupil. The pupillary constrictor muscles form a series of concentric circles around the pupil. When these sphincter muscles contract, the diameter of the pupil decreases. Decreased light intensity Increased sympathetic stimulation Increased light intensity Increased parasympathetic stimulation p. 574 8

Figure 17-13 Refractive Problems (Part 5 of 5).
Surgical Correction Variable success at correcting myopia and hyperopia has been achieved by surgery that reshapes the cornea. In photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) a computer-guided laser shapes the cornea to exact specifications. The entire procedure can be done in less than a minute. A variation on PRK is called LASIK (Laser-Assisted in-Situ Keratomileusis). In this procedure the interior layers of the cornea are reshaped and then recovered by the flap of original outer corneal epithelium. Roughly 70 percent of LASIK patients achieve normal vision, and LASIK has become the most common form of refractive surgery Even after surgery, many patients still need reading glasses, and both immediate and long-term visual problems can occur. p. 582

Figure 17-14a Structure of Rods, Cones, and Rhodopsin Molecule.
Pigment Epithelium In a cone, the discs are infoldings of the plasma membrane, and the outer segment tapers to a blunt point. The pigment epithelium absorbs photons that are not absorbed by visual pigments. It also phagocytizes old discs shed from the tip of the outer segment. In a rod, each disc is an independent entity, and the outer segment forms an elongated cylinder. Melanin granules Outer Segment The outer segment of a photoreceptor contains flattened membranous plates, or discs, that contain the visual pigments. Discs Connecting stalks Inner Segment Mitochondria The inner segment contains the photoreceptor’s major organelles and is responsible for all cell functions other than photoreception. It also releases neurotransmitters. Golgi apparatus Nuclei Cone Rods Each photoreceptor synapses with a bipolar cell. Bipolar cell p. 583 LIGHT a Structure of rods and cones

Figure 17-16 Photoreception (Part 8 of 8).
IN LIGHT ACTIVE STATE −70 mV 4 Dark current is reduced and rate of neurotransmitter release declines The reduction in the rate of Na+ entry reduces the dark current. At the same time, active transport continues to export Na+ from the cytoplasm. When the sodium channels close, the membrane potential drops toward –70 mV. As the plasma membrane hyperpolarizes, the rate of neurotransmitter release decreases. This decrease signals the adjacent bipolar cell that the photoreceptor has absorbed a photon. After absorbing a photon, retinal does not spontaneously revert to he 11-cis form. Instead, the entire rhodopsin molecule must be broken down into retinal and opsin, in a process called bleaching. It is then reassembled. Na + p. 585

Figure 17-17 Bleaching and Regeneration of Visual Pigments.
On absorbing light, retinal changes to a more linear shape. This change activates the opsin molecule. 2 Opsin activation changes the Na+ permeability of the outer segment, and this changes the rate of neurotransmitter release by the inner segment at its synapse with a bipolar cell. Na+ Na+ 11-trans retinal Photon 11-cis retinal and opsin are reassembled to form rhodopsin. 6 Once the retinal has been converted, it can recombine with opsin. The rhodopsin molecule is now ready to repeat the cycle. The regeneration process takes time. After exposure to very bright light, photoreceptors are inactivated while pigment regeneration is under way. 3 ADP ATP Changes in bipolar cell activity are detected by one or more ganglion cells. The location of the stimulated ganglion cell indicates the specific portion of the retina stimulated by the arriving photons. Neuro- transmitter release enzyme 11-trans retinal Opsin 11-cis retinal Opsin Bipolar cell 4 After absorbing a photon, the rhodopsin molecule begins to break down into retinal and opsin. This is known as bleaching. 5 Ganglion cell The retinal is converted to its original shape. This conversion requires energy in the form of ATP. p. 586
