Problem: A patient with a refractive myopia cannot see objects clearly if they are further away than 10 m. To be able to drive safely and obtain his driving license, he needs to be able to clearly see objects up to 100 m away. In this problem, Pmin eye = minimum optical power of the patient’s natural eyes, Pmin combo = minimum optical power of the patient’s natural eyes + corrective glasses, and Pmin glasses = minimum optical power of the corrective glasses.
Questions:
What is the cause of the patient’s vision problems (i.e., his medical diagnosis)? What does this diagnosis mean for the patient?
If the patient opted to purchase glasses, would corrective lenses create real or virtual images in the patient’s field of vision? Would the eye interpret images produced by the glasses as real or virtual images?
What assumptions can be made about the size of the patient’s eyeball and their lens-retina distance (units of m)?
Define the term far point. What is the patient’s far…
The primary function of the lens of the eye is to:
Question 7 options:
Provide protection across the front of the eye
Adjust the shape of the pupil
Focus the visual image onto the optic disc
Focus the visual image onto the fovea centralis
23. Now see what the lens can do. Hold the lens up in the direction of your partner
and look through it. What do you notice about the image you see? NOTE: If the
eye is not fresh, you may have trouble seeing through the lens.

- What should be the distance between Mr. Saleto and the Snellen chart? 6ftaway What instructions can Casey give to Mr. Saleto if he uses glasses? By using the Snellen chart, is Cassey testing distance or near visual acuity? What does it mean if the result of the test is 20/60? What are some nonverbal cues that may indicate that the patient is having difficulty reading the line to which Cassey is pointing?arrow_forwardDistance between the eye and eye chart must be 6 meter during examination of visual acuity. Why?arrow_forwardb) When the muscles connected to the crystalline lens contract fully, its focal length is 16.5000 cm. With this focal length, how far away must an object be to form sharply focused images on the retina? (Note: this distance is called the far point of vision.)arrow_forward

Explain how this focus is maintained as the distance from the object to the eye is increasedor decreased (that is, explain accommodation).arrow_forwardIf you look at 20/20 line and it was in focus where in the eye was the image projected onto of a person's eyesight is worse than 20/20, where is that image projected?arrow_forward
