When examining a patient’s eyes, the nurse recalls that stimulation of the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system: Elevates the eyelid and dilates the pupil
The nurse is reviewing causes of increased intraocular pressure. Which of these factors determines intraocular pressure? Amount of aqueous produced and resistance to its outflow at the angle of the anterior chamber
The nurse is conducting a visual examination. Which of these statements regarding visual pathways and visual fields is true? The image formed on the retina is upside down and reversed from its actual appearance in the outside world
The nurse is testing a patient’s visual accommodation, which refers to which action? Pupillary constriction when looking at a near object
