Characteristics of Lenses Lens  Is a transparent object with at least one curved side that causes light to refract.  Have 2 sides  Either side could.

Content Standard 5 – Contrast ways in which light rays are bent by concave and convex lenses.
Reflection, Refraction and Lenses
Lenses  Lenses display focusing properties because of refraction.  A convex lens will focus a parallel beam of light to a certain point.  A concave.
Thin Lens Equation Distances of virtual images are negative & distances of real images are positive. Heights are positive if upright (above P.A.) and negative.

LENSES.
 Cornea: ◦ Tissue that forms a transparent, curved structure in front of the eye ◦ Refracts light before it enters the eye  Retina: ◦ A layer of cells.
Pg  The Eyeball The Eyeball  Iris: coloured part of the eye that opens and closes to let in more or less light. In the centre you find.

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.
Vision. Normal Vision light is focused directly on the retina - can see clearly both near & far.

Structure – Human Eye

Focussing – Human Eye Ciliary muscles make the lens shorter and thicker to focus a nearby object Relaxed eye lens focusses on a distant object

Eye vs. Camera

Correcting Vision Using Lenses Image: http://www.visionexcellence.com.au/WP1/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/myopia-verses-myopia-corrected.png Near-sightedness; eyeball too long, so image forms in front of retina.

Hyperopia Image from: http://www.visionexcellence.com.au/common-eye-conditions/hypermetropia-hyperopia-long-sightedness-reading-glasses/ Far-sightedness; eyeball too short, so rays reach retina before they meet.

Presbyopia Lenses become stiff with age, cannot change shape Can’t focus on nearby objects.

Astigmatism Blurred or distorted vision caused by incorrectly shaped cornea. Part of an image may be in focus, but the rest is blurry. Image: http://www.visionexcellence.com.au/WP1/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/astigmatism.jpg
