UPDATE
Color blindness - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..inability to distinguish between some colors, most
common is difficulty distinguishing shares of red and green. Usually hereditary.
Depth perception - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Ability to see in 3-dimensions. If a patient does not
have this they see images as flat.
Electromagnetic Radiation - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..energy that travel and spreads as it goes.
Contact Lens Papillary Conjunctivitis (CLPC) - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..immunological response
to denatured protein deposits on surface of CL. Bumps, redness, mucus discharge.
Contact Lens Acute Red Eye (CLARE) - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Redness around cornea with
corneal inflammation due to response to endotoxins from bacteria colonizing the lens
surface.
Corneal Ulcer - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Associated with CL wear, red eye, pain, light sensitivity,
decrease VA, and there is discharge. Treatment: no CL and antibiotics.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..bacteria that is everywhere and can get in
eye due to contact lenses. Can either invade the cells in the eye or just kill them.
Defense Mechanism - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Tears (its biochemistry and flow), ephithelium
layer (contains passice and active defenses), and Basal lamina (function as a filter)
Nuclear sclerosis - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..age-related cataract. Yellowing of the center of the
lens making the lens more powerful.
Drug induced myopic shift - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..use of drugs -usually sulfa drugs-lead to
myopic shift
, Visible Spectrum - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Portion of EM spectrum that is visible and human eye
can detect. Typical human eye can respond to wavelengths from 380-750nm
Peripheral Vision - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Side vision, not central
Anterior Chamber - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Fluid filled space inside the eye between the cornea
and iris.
Aqueous Humos - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Clear, watery fluid that fills the space between the
cornea and the front of the vitreous, bathing and nourishing the lens, iris, and cornea.
Maintains the eye's Intraocular pressure.
Blind spot - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Sightless area within the visual field of a normal eye. Caused
by absence of light sensitive photo receptors where the optic nerve enters the eye.
Blood vessel - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..an artery, vein, or capillary through which the blood
circulates.
Choroid - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Layer of large blood vessels lying between the retina and the
sclera, which provides nourishment to the retina
Cones - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..photoreceptor located in retina used for color vision, provides
sharp visual acuity.
Short wavelength cones - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..respond best to blue
Medium wavelength cones - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..respond best to green and yellow
Long wavelength cones - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..responds best to red and yellow
Conjunctiva - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Transparent mucous membrane covering the outer surface
of the eyeball except for cornea
Cornea - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Transparent front part of the eye that covers the iris, pupil, and
anterior chamber and provides most of the eye's optical power.
Crystalline Lens - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Transparent oval tissue that helps bring rays of light to
focus on the retina.
Eyebrow - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Bony ridge covered by an arch of short hairs.
Eyelids - ✔✔ANSW✔✔..Protective structure covering front of eye, provides tear
exchange and takes away debris in eye.
