3

4 Aqueous humor secreted from Ciliary body,
Flos to Anterior Chamber, drains through Canal of Schlemm

5 _________

6 Intrinsic Muscles of the Eye: The Iris
circular.....________ radial.....…________ Dilating pupil for eye exam: how to do it? Pharmacology of pupillary dilation: _________

7 Intrinsic Muscles of the Eye: Ciliary Muscle
Ciliary muscle relaxed = tension on zonular fibers = tension on lens = flattened lens = _________________ Ciliary muscle contracted = tension on zonular fibers reduced = less tension on lens = lens becomes more spherical =__________________ Eye strain Using a Microscope or Binoculars

8 Near point of Accomodation
0.06 0.07 0.08 0.09 0.12 0.14 0.16 0.18 0.3 0.4

9 Demonstrate Convergence
With Convergence Demonstrate Convergence

10 Extraocular muscles Motor innervation by CN III = __________ CN IV = __________ CN VI = __________ __________= misalignment of eyes Due to _______________________

11 Lateral geniculate nucleus a subdivision of the thalamus.
             

12 Visual reflexes: ___________, ___________, ___________, ___________.

13 Clinical Case Study: Hyperprolactinemia, p. 627-8 of text

14 The Visual System Part 2

15 The Retina

16 What do you notice with regards to the connections in this complex circuit?
What cells seem to have axons? What does this mean with regards to sensory coding?

17 S 15 Receptors for light detection More membrane = more photosensitive molecules = more sensitive to light Photoreceptor cells 4 light sensitive proteins: - 1 type of _____ - 3 types of ______, each with a single type

18 Visual Acuity 120,000,000 rods and 6,000,000 cones per retina
1,200,000 retinal ganglion cells & axons ____:___convergence ratio Fovea:

21 _______ Theory of Color Vision
Differences in spectral sensitivity due to 4 types of ______. Web-based color deficiency test _______ Theory of Color Vision

22 “Bleaching” of photopigments
_________ _________

23 What is the advantage of this multistep process?
The cascade of events initiated by light in a photoreceptor. The result of the cascade is to close a cGMP-gated sodium channel, reducing the inward current and hyperpolarizing the membrane.
