100% accurate answers
The extra-ocular muscles are inserted into the sclera and serve to rotate the eye in all
possible directions. There are _______of these muscles. - correct answer -Six
The fibrous tunic is comprised of the: - correct answer -Sclera and cornea
Fusion occurs: - correct answer -In the brain

body
The ability of the eye to bring objects of varying distances to focus on the retina is
known as: - correct answer -Accommodation
When accommodation is at rest, rays of light from a distant source come to focus
behind the retina. This condition is known as: - correct answer -Hyperopia

nerve
That area of the retina capable of perceiving the greatest amount of detail is: - correct
answer -Fovea centralis

diopters
The layer of the cornea which is highly regenerative is: - correct answer -The
epithelium
Night vision is chiefly a function of the: - correct answer -Rods
A tendency of the visual axis to deviate inward while the eyes are in a position of rest is
known as: - correct answer -Esophoria
A "farsighted" eye is one that is: - correct answer -Hyperopic
The term used to indicate "double vision" is: - correct answer -Diplopia
The condition in which the ability to accommodate for near vision becomes inadequate
because of loss of elasticity of the crystalline lens is called: - correct answer -
Presbyopia
,When there is a loss of vision without any apparent disease of the eye it is known as: -
correct answer -Amblyopia
A refractive error in which the rays of light do not come to a single point of focus is
called: - correct answer -Astigmatism
The condition in which the crystalline lens of the eye gradually loses its transparency
with consequent loss of visual acuity is known as: - correct answer -Cataract
An ocular disease having as its primary characteristic a sustained increase in
intraocular pressure. - correct answer -Glaucoma

endothelium), this space is filled with aqueous. - correct answer -Anterior chamber
A tendency of one eye to deviate upward is: - correct answer -Hyperphoria
The layer of the cornea which comprises ninety percent of its thickness is: - correct
answer -The stroma
A condition in which the refractive error of one eye significantly differs from that of the
other and where both eyes have the same sign (i.e. both eyes are myopic or hyperopic)
is known as: - correct answer -Anisometropia
The refractive error which results in two points of focus falling behind the retina is: -
correct answer -Compound hyperopic astigmatism
The refractive condition caused by a damaged cornea so that rays of light come to
many focal points on the retina is known as: - correct answer -Irregular astigmatism
The index of refraction of the crystalline lens is: - correct answer -1.42
The index of refraction of the cornea is: - correct answer -1.37
